MEGA QUIZ- 2 (30 to 40) It is the process used by plants to uptake the organic contaminants from soil? Phytoaccumulation Phytotransformation Phytostabilization Phytodegradation source - wikipedia Phytoremediation is a process used by plants to remove, degrade, or immobilize organic contaminants from soil, water, or air. It involves the use of specific plants, known as hyperaccumulators or phytoremediators, that have the ability to absorb, accumulate, and transform pollutants within their tissues. There are several mechanisms involved in phytoremediation: Phytoextraction or phytoaccumulation: This process involves the uptake and accumulation of contaminants in the roots, stems, leaves, and other plant tissues. The contaminants can be heavy metals, organic pollutants, or radioactive elements. Once accumulated in the plant, they can be harvested and properly disposed of, thus removing them from the environment. Phytotransformation: In this process, plants absorb organic contaminants from...
