Detailed explanation-1: -The six macronutrients, nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sulfur (S) are required by plants in large amounts. The rest of the elements are required in trace amounts (micronutrients).
Detailed explanation-2: -Plants convert sunlight energy into chemical energy. They use carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to make their own food in the presence of chlorophyll. The process by which green plants make their own food from carbon dioxide and water by using sunlight energy in the presence of chlorophyll is called photosynthesis.
