Frontmatter e importance of nitrogen-containing ions
More informaLtiivoinng organisms need proteins for growth and repair. Plants have to
manufacture (synthesise) their own proteins and this they do by converting
their carbohydrates rst into amino acids and then linking the amino acids
together to form proteins.
e additional element necessary to convert carbohydrate into amino acid is
nitrogen and although the atmosphere is 79% nitrogen, plants cannot make
direct use of it. e nitrogen used by a plant is absorbed from the soil as the
CHAPTER nitrate ion (NO?3) via the root hairs.
