Answer:
True (plz mark me as brilliant and follow me.) :) ;)
Explanation:
Plants need iron for the formation of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll gives leaves their green color and is necessary for the plant to produce the food it needs for its own growth. ... With most plants, iron can only be absorbed as a free ion (Fe++) when the pH is between 5.0 and 6.5.
The basic structure of a chlorophyll molecule is a porphyrin ring, coordinated to a central atom. This is very similar in structure to the heme group found in hemoglobin, except that in heme the central atom is iron, whereas in chlorophyll it is magnesium.
