Ion Uptake Mechanism (2 Theories)

Ion Uptake Mechanism (Theories)

Ion Uptake Mechanism (Contact exchange theory, CO2 exchange theory) Ion Uptake Theory Scientists have postulated many theories about adsorption of ions, among them following 2 are most important 1.  Contact exchange theory. 2.  CO2 exchange theory.   1. Contact exchange theory   Contact exchange theory   In 1951 aenni and his associates develop this theory. This is a process of direct ion exchange between root cells and soil colloids. They observe that cations of soil colloids are generally moving around their own shell and similarly H+ ions of root surface are also moving around their own shell. In this process, once upon a time when two shells are come in contact closely they overlap each other. Then the ions of these two shells, exchange each other. Result by, H+ ions are replaced by other cations. H+ [Root] + K+ [Clay] → K+ [Root] + H+ [Clay].   2. CO2 …

Symbiosis vs Non symbiosis

Symbiosis vs Non symbiosis

Symbiosis vs Non symbiosis Difference between symbiosis and non symbiosis Symbiosis Non-symbiosis The Biochemical reduction of atmospheric inert   dry nitrogen carried out by an association    of       two dissimilar organism living intimately to the     soil and water. This process is called symbiosis. The Biochemical reduction of atmospheric inert   dry nitrogen carried out by an individual organism living freely soil and water.  This process           called  Non­symbiosis. Two organism are responsible. One organism is responsible. It is impossible without 2 organism are living together. It is possible to …
