Introduction:

Initially the atoms are electrically neutral because they contain the same number of negatively charged electrons and positively charged protons. Ions are the atoms that have gained or lost one or more electrons and therefore have a negative or positive charge. A cation is an atom that has lost a valence electron and therefore is positively charged. An anion is an atom that has gained a valence electron and is negatively charged.

Plants grow in many different shapes and sizes. Much of their shape depends on an internal structure that is composed of carbon-containing molecules such as cellulose and lignin. Plants that have a strong internal structure can grow larger than other plants because their structure can support their size. Plants obtain the majority of the carbon necessary for building these structural molecules from - O air O microorganisms O soil O water 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 近
