Asked in KMU Centralized Admission Test 2021 2021

The nitrogen gas can be fixed spontaneously By:

Correct answer: A. Industrial fixation

  • A. Industrial fixation
  • B. Biological fixation
  • C. Atmospheric fixation
  • D. All of the above

Explanation

In industrial fixation, nitrogen gas (N2) is converted into a usable form, such as ammonia (NH3), through a process called the Haber-Bosch process. This process involves combining nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas under high pressure and temperature in the presence of a catalyst. The resulting ammonia can then be used as a fertilizer or in the production of various chemical compounds. Industrial fixation plays a crucial role in providing the nitrogen needed for agriculture and other industries.

About Plant Nutrition and Transport

Plants require macronutrients and micronutrients for growth, and mineral deficiencies produce recognizable symptoms. Transport involves water and minerals through xylem by transpiration pull, cohesion and adhesion, while phloem translocates sugars from sources to sinks. Root pressure and transpiration are distinct mechanisms.
