Aug 15, 2024

Basics Need for a Plant

Importance of Plants

  • Essential for humans: provide food (vegetables and fruits), fresh air, and habitats for animals (insects and birds).

Basic Needs of Plants

  • Water:

    • Essential for growth.
    • Absorbed through roots and transported via stems.
    • Without sufficient water, plants wilt and die.
  • Air:

    • Crucial for photosynthesis and respiration.
    • Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
    • Lack of air leads to plant death.
  • Sunlight:

    • Vital for photosynthesis.
    • Provides warmth and energy.
    • Excessive heat can dry out plants.
    • Insufficient light causes yellowing and browning (poor growth).
  • Soil:

    • Provides essential nutrients (potassium, nitrogen) necessary for healthy growth.
    • Affects the overall health of the plant.
  • Space:

    • Allows roots to spread and access light.
    • Adequate space is necessary for growth and development.
