The use of fertilizers in agriculture has significantly altered several nutrient cycles including:

potassium, nitrogen and phosphorous cycle

Explanation:

A fertilizer is a substance which is applied on the plants by farmers to increase the supply of nutrients for the plants. Fertilizers have known to be toxic in many ways such as they alter the potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus cycles. Nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus are present in abundant amounts in the fertilizers. Draining of these fertilizers into rivers and ponds is toxic for the aquatic life. Hence, the use of fertilizers disrupts the natural cycles and is toxic for many aquatic plants and animals.

nanotechnology is a powerful tool in biomaterials research as it creates numerous possibilities for the engineering of functional molecules. nano-bio refers to projected ability to incorporate biomimicry into various materials at nanoscale.  

the atomic number will stay the same no matter how many electrons it has, so it doesn’t decrease nor increase. it’ll only change with a different number of protons
