An example for nitrogenous fertilizer is _________.

  1. super phosphate

  2. urea

  3. potassium sulphate

  4. potassium chloride
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Examples of nitrogenous fertilizers:-

1) Nitrate fertilizers
2) Ammonium fertilizers
3) Nitrate and ammonium fertilizers
4) Amide fertilizers
   (i)Urea- It is slightly acidic in nature. Urea application to soil creates a small loss of calcium from the soil. Urea is highly concentrated nitrogenous fertilizer containing 46% nitrogen.
   (ii)Calcium Cyanamide- It is non-leachable, synthetic organic fertilizer. Its basicity (alkalinity) is three times as high as that of sodium nitrate and advisable for use on acid soils.

The leaves die out early is due to the deficiency of: 

  1. nitrogen

  2. phosphorous

  3. potassium

  4. iron
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Because of the nitrogen deficiency following things happens:-

1. Plants growth is stunted and poorly developed(because protein content, cell division, and cell enlargement are decreased) 
2. It causes yellowing (chlorosis) of leaves, Older leaves are affected first.
3. Flowering and fruiting are reduced.
4. Protein and starch content is decreased.
5. Prolonged dormancy and early senescence appear.

Name the most important elements required for a plant growth.

  1. potassium , nitrogen, and phosphorus

  2. nitrogen , mercury and hydrogen

  3. zinc , lead and mercury

  4. oxygen , iodine and potassium
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

 The most important elements that plants need, without which they won't thrive, are the three macronutrients: potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus. Because they are basic building blocks of every plant are ATP, cell membranes and amino acids. Nitrogen is an element in every amino acid; ATP, which is the primary source of energy for all cells, contains phosphorus. Potassium is essential to a plant's ability to metabolize. This element also comprises up to two percent of a plant's weight.

So, the correct answer is 'Potassium, nitrogen, and phosphorus'.

Excess use of nitrogen fertilizers does not lead to:

  1. pest problems

  2. growth problems

  3. fruiting problems

  4. flowering problems
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

1) Nitrogen fertilizers does not lead to pest problem but it leads to other bad causes to environment.

2) Excess nitrogen in the air can impair our ability to breathe, limit visibility and alter plant growth.  

3) Nutrient pollution is one of America's most widespread, costly and challenging environmental problems, and is caused by excess nitrogen and phosphorus in the air and water.
