Plant Growth and Nutrient Needs

The video tutorial explains the basic needs of plants, which include soil, water, sunlight, air, and space. It describes how soil provides nutrients and anchors roots, while water is essential for nutrient uptake. Sunlight and air are crucial for photosynthesis, allowing plants to make their own food. Space is necessary for plants to access light and spread their roots. The video emphasizes the importance of these elements for plant survival and growth.

What are plants primarily known for providing?

• Fermentation

Which two elements are essential for photosynthesis?

• Water and soil

• Sunlight and air

• Nutrients and space

• Roots and leaves

Why do plants need space to grow?

• To avoid predators

• To change color

• To access light and nutrients

• To produce more seeds

What can happen if plants grow too close together?

• They will not get enough sunlight

• They will grow taller

• They will produce more flowers
