Some of the pea family, however, bear on their roots little tubers formed by minute organisms called bacteria, which have the power of ex- tracting nitrogen directly from the free air mingled with the soil ; and hence, wherever these tuber-bearing legumes are present the soil is found to be enriched with nitrogen in a form ready for use. 1 4 ROOTS AND UNDERGROUND STEMS Plants also obtain their supply of the various mineral salts needed by them from solutions in the soil water which they absorb ...through their roots. Different species, and even different varieties of the same species, absorb these substances in very different proportions, and upon this fact, much more than upon the form of roots (Sec. 173), depends the principle of the rotation of crops in farming. 199. Plants can not choose their Food. Substances are often found in plants which appear to be useless, and some, as zinc and lead, which are positively harmful. This shows that the roots are not able to choose their own nourishment, but absorb whatever is present in the soil in soluble form and can penetrate their cell walls.
