_____ is used by plants as nnitrates.
Answers
Answer:
Plants absorb nitrogen from the soil both in the form of nitrate ammonium (NH4+). Some species of plant prefer NO3 than NH4 because plant easily convert NO3 to Protein and Amino acid then NH4. Nitrate is readily absorbed by plant root and not need any further conversion, Nitrate is the form of nitrogen most used by plants for growth and development. Ammonium taken in by plants is used directly in proteins.
