Minerals Affects for Plant Growth

Theresa Mercer

Plant roots absorb minerals in ionic form from the soil solution, which is mediated by complex transport proteins. Identification of transport and regulatory systems for nutrient uptake and distribution has made significant progress recently. Mineral metabolism disorders are characterised by elevated mineral levels in the blood, either too much or too little. Minerals are important for human health. They play a variety of roles in the body's metabolism and functions.
