ANIMALS PLANTS
E.g.

H2O
Meet , milk.
photosynthesis
PHOTOYSNTHESIS
Plant food production in sunlight .
AUTOTROPHIC;
They can make their food by the process of photosynthesis
. need for nutrient. They are classified by two process.
1; Macronutrients-
2; Micronutrients-
MICRONUTRIENTS;
The mineral
elements needed
by the plants in
small amount are
called
micronutrients.
These include ‘
Fe’ Cu ’ B.
Macronutrients;
The mineral
elements needed
by the plants in
large amount are

ROLE OF
NITROGEN;
Nitrogen is avital
substance.
Nitrogen is major
component of protein ,
hormones , chlorophyll
, vitamins and
enzymes essential for
plants life.
Nitrogen metabolism is a
major factor in stem and
leaf growth.
Nitrogen is the key element of amino
acid (NH3) . That is why nitrogen also
play vital role in protein synthesis.
 proteins are made up of amino acids.
 Too much supply of nitrogen can delay flowering
