What does the plant use the nutrients for?
The plant uses the nutrients to grow. There are a number of different processes that are going on inside the plant at any one time. The two processes that use the most of the plants attention are growth and photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a Greek root word that comes from the Greek word for light or photo and the Greek words for put together. In other words, the plant uses light to put stuff together. Q: What does the plant put together? A: The plant puts together sugar. Q: What does the plant use to put together sugars? A: The plant takes in Carbon Dioxide through the stomate holes. Carbon Dioxide is a gas that is part of the air; it is made from one Carbon and two Oxygens. Di is a Greek root word that means “two”. So, Carbon Dioxide is one Carbon and two Oxygens. Now, to this, the plant adds water, or H2 O, for two Hydrogens and one Oxygen. The plant uses the energy from the light and makes what is now called a Carbo Hydrate. This means that there are Carbon rings chemically bonded
