**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Mineral Nutrition**: Plants require various minerals for growth, which are categorized into macronutrients (needed in larger amounts) and micronutrients (needed in smaller amounts). 2. **Deficiency and Toxicity**: A deficiency occurs when a mineral is present in insufficient amounts, leading to symptoms of nutrient deficiency. Conversely, toxicity occurs when a mineral is present in excess, which can inhibit the uptake of other essential minerals. 3. **Identifying the Problem**: The question asks which mineral's toxicity leads to a reduction in the uptake of magnesium (Mg) and iron (Fe). ...
