Question

if nutrients absorved by plants from soil is equal to the mass of plant or tree what will happen? Do your agree with von helmont? Think and write your hypothesis?

Answer 1

it means that the weight of the Big trees is equal to the nutrients in the soil they
observed

Answer 2

Here is my hypothesis:

Explanation:

Plants absorb nutrition from the soil that is continuously regenerated through the process of decomposition, microbial action, and decay.

This process happens in the soil itself. Therefore, you cannot associate the mass of soil versus the mass of a plant in order to estimate the quantity of nutrients absorbed so far.
