It is a chemical element : symbol P (phosphoros ). Nonmetallic chemical element, chemical symbol P, atomic number
occurs naturally in rock formations in the earth's crust, usually as phosphate Of high nutritive value to plants and animals, phosphates are used in fertilizers and as animal feed supplements They are also used in the manufacture of industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals and as detergent builders High phosphate concentrations in surface waters may indicate fertilizer runoff, domestic waste discharge, or the presence of industrial effluents or detergents Although phosphates from these sources are usually poly-phosphates or organically bound, all will degrade to "ortho" or reactive phosphates with time If high phosphate concentrations persist, algae and other aquatic plant life will flourish eventually causing decreased dissolved oxygen levels in the water due to the accelerated decay of organic matter Phosphate measurement is used to control scale and corrosion inhibitor levels in boilers and cooling towers (http: //www chemetrics com/)

Phosphorus is closely associated with calcium in bone development Most of the phosphorus in the body is found in the bones The phosphorus level in the blood is very important for muscle and nerve function Very low levels of phosphorus can be associated with starvation or malnutrition and can lead to muscle weakness High levels of phosphorus are usually associated with kidney disease Your health care provider should evaluate values outside the reference range [Hemolysis comment applies**]
The ordinary allotrope, called white phosphorus, is a poisonous, colourless, semitransparent, soft, waxy solid that glows in the dark (see phosphorescence) and combusts spontaneously in air, producing dense white fumes of the oxide P4O10; it is used as a rodenticide and a military smokescreen. Heat or sunlight converts it to the red phosphorus allotrope, a violet-red powder that does not phosphoresce or ignite spontaneously. Much less reactive and soluble than white phosphorus, it is used in manufacturing other phosphorus compounds and in semiconductors, fertilizers, safety matches, and fireworks. Black phosphorus, made by heating the white form under pressure, is flaky like graphite. Phosphorus seldom occurs uncombined in nature. As the phosphate ion, it is abundant and widely distributed, in apatite, phosphorite, and many other minerals. Phosphorus has valence 3 or 5 in compounds, which have many uses in industry. Phosphine (PH3) is a chemical raw material and a doping agent (deliberately added impurity) for solid-state electronics components. Organic phosphorus compounds are used as plasticizers, gasoline additives, insecticides (e.g., parathion), and nerve gases. In living organisms the role of phosphorus is essential; it is a component of DNA and RNA, ATP, and bone
An element that plays an important role in the body's use of carbohydrates and fats in the synthesis of protein for the growth, maintenance and repair of cells and tissue Excess phosphorus is normally removed by the kidneys When the kidneys are not working properly, phosphorus can build up in the body High levels of phosphorus in the body can make a person's skin feel itchy and weaken bones
An essential mineral element that is required for proper growth and development of plants It is a component of many compounds within cells and plays a major role in energy production Its most common deficiency symptoms in plants include stunted growth and malformed leaves that may contain necrotic spots
the primary limiting nutrient required for plant growth Increasing phosphorus loadings to a water body may result in eutrophication
a multivalent nonmetallic element of the nitrogen family that occurs commonly in inorganic phosphate rocks and as organic phosphates in all living cells; is highly reactive and occurs in several allotropic forms
It is very active chemically, must be preserved under water, and unites with oxygen even at ordinary temperatures, giving a faint glow, whence its name
Hence, any substance which shines in the dark like phosphorus, as certain phosphorescent bodies
Atomic weight 31
An essential chemical food element that can contribute to the eutrophication of lakes and other water bodies by fostering the growth of plant life Phosphorus pollution is primarily caused by urban or agricultural stormwater runoff containing fertilizers, or by runoff that contains animal manure
Key nutrient influencing plant growth in more than 80% of Wisconsin lakes Soluble reactive phosphorus is the amount of phosphorus in solution that is available to plants Total phosphorus includes the amount of phosphorus in solution (reactive) and in particulate form
The molecule contains four atoms
Key nutrient influencing plant growth in most lakes and ponds, where it is the least available nutrient and therefore limits the growth of algae and aquatic vegetation Phosphorus is abundant in plant and animal matter and attaches to fine soil particles Stormwater transports phosphorus, increasing levels in waterbodies and causing algae populations to increase This in turn causes a decline in water transparency and can accelerate eutrophication With very high phosphorus concentrations, intense "blooms" of algae may occur, coloring the water green and releasing strong odors when they decay
It always occurs compined, usually in phosphates, as in the mineral apatite, in bones, etc
An element occurring in animal manure and chemical fertilizer that is essential to the growth and development of plants, but which, in excess, can cause water to become polluted and threaten aquatic animals
in the form of phosphate or superphosphate
An essential chemical food element that can contribute to the eutrophication of lakes and other water bodies
Symbol P
The morning star; Phosphor
What it's good for: Helps form bones and teeth, builds muscle and is involved in almost all metabolic actions in the body Where you get it: Milk, meat, poultry, fish, eggs, whole grains, seeds and nuts DRI or RDA: 800 mg to 1,200 mg for adults
An essential chemical food element that can contribute to nutrient loading of lakes and other water bodies Increased phosphorus levels result from discharge of phosphorus-containing materials into surface waters, like fertilizers
