Enzymatic Reaction Mechanisms Regarding Animal Waste Natural Organic Compounds Plant Absorption Conceptual Study

Abstract

In this conceptual study, the plant absorption pathway of extracellular organic compounds has been explained by applying fundamental notions of organic chemistry. Indeed, as soon as animal waste nutrients, particularly carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids, are combined with plant cellular membrane constituents—essentially glycoproteins, glycolipids, or phospholipids—they bind together or interact due to their functional groups at the level of which organic reactions occur. As a result, carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids will be hydrolyzed to produce glucose, amino acids, or fatty acids, which will react with glycoproteins, glycolipids, or phospholipids to generate their analogs or the corresponding products, which will then be able to diffuse smoothly across the plant cellular membrane and therefore reach the cytoplasm, where they will be hydrolyzed to release glucose, amino acids, or fatty acids for plant development or growth.
