Learning outcomes
By the end of the lesson you should know / be able
•to link ideas about feeding relationships and photosynthesis
• that plants require a range of minerals for healthy growth
• that fertilisers supply these minerals to crop plants

Remember: The three main Remember: The three main types of nutrient are:types of nutrient are:
1. Nitrogen in the form Nitrates – used to make proteins
2. Phosphorus in the form of Phosphates – used to provide phosphorus to help photosynthesis and respiration
3. Potassium – helps the enzymes that are needed for photosynthesis and respiration

Remember: Lack of the three Remember: Lack of the three minerals would lead to a minerals would lead to a “Deficiency Symptom”:“Deficiency Symptom”:
Lack of nitrates:Small plant, yellow leaves
Lack of phosphates:Small roots and purple leaves
Lack of potassium:Yellow leaves with dead bits
