The correct Answer is:
To determine which option contains all three macronutrients, we can analyze each option based on the classification of nutrients into macronutrients and micronutrients. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Macronutrients and Micronutrients**: - Macronutrients are required by plants in larger quantities (more than 10 millimoles). Examples include nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sulfur. - Micronutrients are required in smaller quantities (less than 10 millimoles). Examples include iron, boron, copper, zinc, and manganese. 2. **Evaluate Each Option**: - **Option 1: Iron, Boron, Calcium**: - Iron: Micronutrient - Boron: Micronutrient - Calcium: Macronutrient - **Conclusion**: Only one macronutrient (Calcium). - **Option 2: Iron, Copper, Molybdenum**: - Iron: Micronutrient - Copper: Micronutrient - Molybdenum: Micronutrient - **Conclusion**: No macronutrients. - **Option 3: Molybdenum, Magnesium, Manganese**: - Molybdenum: Micronutrient - Magnesium: Macronutrient - Manganese: Micronutrient - **Conclusion**: Only one macronutrient (Magnesium). - **Option 4: Nitrogen, Nickel, Phosphorus**: - Nitrogen: Macronutrient - Nickel: Micronutrient - Phosphorus: Macronutrient - **Conclusion**: Two macronutrients (Nitrogen and Phosphorus). 3. **Final Evaluation**: - After evaluating all options, none of the options contain three macronutrients. However, **Option 4** has two macronutrients (Nitrogen and Phosphorus) and one micronutrient (Nickel). ### Answer: None of the options contain all three macronutrients.
