Naw not D

OpenStudy (baby456):

its c

OpenStudy (somy):

why its not water, is because plant gets water from the soil

OpenStudy (somy):

why not carbon dioxide is because plants get it by gas exchange during transpiration as stomata are open

OpenStudy (somy):

now why not sugar, this is because plant is autotroph, the do photosynthesis and make their own food which is sugar

OpenStudy (somy):

why it is Nitrogen, this is because nitrogen is need to plant for processes like -protein synthesis, growth, repair, DNA formation and the rest of the processes that need nitrogen. Plants cannot make their own nitrogen, so one of the ways plant can get Nitrogen is by bacterium rhizobium which is in root nodules. since insect is living organism, this plant decomposes and thus gets its nitrogen.
