Explain the significance of mineral nutrients in plants.
(N/A) Plants absorb mineral nutrients from the soil through their roots. These nutrients are then transported from the stems to the leaves and to the actively growing regions of the plant.
When a part of the plant reaches senescence or aging,the nutrients are remobilized from these older tissues and transported to the younger,actively growing regions of the plant.
