Biogeochemical Cycle. : the cycling of chemical elements required by life between the living and nonliving parts of the environment. Some examples of these chemical elements are H2O, P, S, N2, O2 and C. . Geochemical Cycles continued. Objectives: . Describe the process of cycling phosphorus throughout environment. . Describe the role that fertilizer plays in both the nitrogen and phosphorus cycle. . What is phosphorus?. What are these?. These are the cyclic pathways through which chemical elements move from the environment to organisms and back to the environment.. Such movements are essential for the maintaining of life, so are also called . Energy Flow through the Ecosystem. Ms. McCabe. SC.912.L.17.9, SC.912.E.7.1, SC.912.P.10.1 (Honors. ). Do Now 9/29-30/15. Examine the following food web. . Assume there was . a “weasel disease” that wiped out all male weasels. . RAMI ITANI. What Matter Is Being Cycled. The matter that is being cycled is Nitrogen. Nitrogen is one of the main building blocks of life. Every living things need nitrogen to either breath or to grow. Nitrogen can be found almost everywhere.For example it can be found in the air,in soil, in water and even in volcanic gasses. Nitrogen is one of the most important elements on earth. Objectives:. Identify and describe the flow of nutrients in each biogeochemical cycle. . Explain the impact that humans have on the biogeochemical cycles. .. What happens to energy in an ecosystem?. Objective: Make unit conversions. Fill in the Missing Numbers. 1 foot = _____ inches. 1 meter = _____ centimeters. 1 pound = _______ ounces. 1 minute = ______ seconds. 1 hour = ________ minutes. 1 day = __________ seconds. William H.
