Water and carbon dioxide are used to synthesise food during photosynthesis. ... These are absorbed through the roots as mineral ions dissolved in the soil water. Two important mineral ions needed by plants are nitrate - for making amino acids, which are needed to make proteins.
If a plant does not get enough minerals, its growth will be poor. It will suffer from deficiency symptoms: deficient in nitrate - it will suffer from stunted growth-deficient in magnesium - its leaves will turn yellow
