Which of the following processes enables a plant to extract nutrients from the soil? O Nutrient anions (sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, etc) are replaced by Cl¯ on soil particles. Released nutrients become available in the soil water. O Anions exchange places with cations during anion exchange, which confuses roots and turns HATS into LATS, after which the endodermis synthesizes a caspian endothelium O Cation exchange facilitates the breaking of covalent bonds between nutrients and soil particles O Protons replace nutrient cations on soil particles

Plant sensory system

The plant sensory system is a sophisticated system that responds to environmental stimuli such as light,temperature, gravity, and touch. Research predicts that plant hormones and signaling mechanisms areresponsible for this regulation system in plants.
