    Structure of the Mn 4 O 5 Ca core of the oxygen-evolving site in plants, illustrating one of many roles of the trace mineral manganese. [38] The list of minerals required for plants is similar to that for animals. Both use very similar enzymes, although differences exist. For example, legumes host molybdenum-containing nitrogenase, but animals ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_micronutrients

    Micronutrients are nutrients such as vitamins and minerals required by organisms in varying quantities throughout life to orchestrate a range of physiological functions to maintain health. [1] [2] The following is a list of micronutrients used by various living organisms. For human-specific nutrients, see Mineral (nutrient).

  4. Plant nutrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrition

    The root, especially the root hair, a unique cell, is the essential organ for the uptake of nutrients. The structure and architecture of the root can alter the rate of nutrient uptake. Nutrient ions are transported to the center of the root, the stele, in order for the nutrients to reach the conducting tissues, xylem and phloem. [6]

  5. Trace element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_element

    A trace element is a chemical element of a minute quantity, a trace amount, especially used in referring to a micronutrient, [1] [2] but is also used to refer to minor elements in the composition of a rock, or other chemical substance. In nutrition, trace elements are classified into two groups: essential trace elements, and non-essential trace ...

    Given the rapid growth during infancy, this phase demands the highest relative energy and nutrient intake compared to other stages of development. Proper nutrition during pregnancy plays a vital role in the development of the brain, requiring essential nutrients such as specific lipids , protein , folate , zinc , iodine , iron , and copper .

  7. Mineral absorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_absorption

    In plants and animals, mineral absorption, also called mineral uptake is the way in which minerals enter the cellular material, typically following the same pathway as water. In plants, the entrance portal for mineral uptake is usually through the roots. Some mineral ions diffuse in-between the cells. In contrast to water, some minerals are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_minerals

    This is a list of minerals which have Wikipedia articles. Minerals are distinguished by various chemical and physical properties. Differences in chemical composition and crystal structure distinguish the various species .

  9. Nutrient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutrient

    All organisms require water. Essential nutrients for animals are the energy sources, some of the amino acids that are combined to create proteins, a subset of fatty acids, vitamins and certain minerals. Plants require more diverse minerals absorbed through roots, plus carbon dioxide and oxygen absorbed through leaves.
