What is the mixture of mineral and rock particles remains of organism water and air?
The mixture you are describing sounds like soil, which consists of mineral and rock particles, organic matter from decaying organisms, water, and air. Soil is vital for supporting plant growth and providing nutrients for ecosystems.
What two factors are important to form soil?
two factors that are important to form soil are organic matter ,water , and air
What is the transfer of nitrogen from air to soil to organism and back to air and soil?
Nitrogen fixation by certain bacteria in soil converts atmospheric nitrogen into a form usable by plants. Plants take up nitrogen from soil through their roots, incorporating it into their tissues. When plants and animals die, decomposers break down their remains, releasing nitrogen back into the soil. Some nitrogen is also released back into the atmosphere through processes like denitrification.
What is a mixture of wheathered rock organic matter air and water?
The mixture you are describing is called soil. Soil is composed of weathered rock particles, organic matter from plant and animal remains, air, and water. It is a crucial component for supporting plant growth and sustaining ecosystem functions.
How does carbon enter the geosphere and leaves the biosphere?
Carbon remains constant in its cycle. It is recycled. The gist of it is that it goes from air-> to soil -> to bacteria which releases it back into the air again.
What is the nitrogen cycle and how does it work in a simple and easy-to-understand way?
The nitrogen cycle is the process by which nitrogen moves through the environment. Nitrogen gas in the air is converted into a form that plants can use by bacteria in the soil. Plants then take up this nitrogen to grow. When plants and animals die, bacteria break down their remains, releasing nitrogen back into the soil. This cycle continues as nitrogen is recycled between the air, soil, plants, and animals.
What is the soil that remains above its parent rock?
residual soil
How do soil made of?
Question: What is soil made of?Answer: Soil is a mixture of rock particles, minerals, decayed organic material, water, and air. Soil also contains a dark-colored substance called humus. (pronunciation: HYOO mus, not hummus, as in the dip) Humus is formed as plant and animal remains decay. Humus helps create air spaces in soil for the air and water plants must have, and it also provides the soil with the nutrients it must have.Hope this answered your question!
Why can't animals use nitrogen in the air?
Because the nitrogen in the air is in a form not usable to animals and plants. The only way animals get nitrogen to build protein and nucleic acid is by eating it. This is usually through plants, which get there nitrogen from the soil. They get it from the soil cuz bacteria in the soil turn the atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form. In a water ecosystem cyanobacteria a.k.a. blue-green algae transform the nitrogen from the atmosphere into usable forms of nitrate
How is an earthworm adapted to survive?
It eats remains like animal waste, apple core, and other bio-degradable things. The leave waste that is soil. The live off of small air pockets in the soil.
How do minenerals form?
Minerals take million of years to form. this lengthy process happened when heat and pressure acts on the remains of plants buried under rocks and soil. Which were then decomposed by micro organisms. the plant that grew again on that rich soil also got buried by the rocks and soil. In this way, layer after layer of plant remains got buried deeper and deeper, on the top of the other and after million of years the minerals are formed.
What is the original rock material called that is broken down to form soil?
Dust>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>because th ey flying in the air and they landing in the place and so many dust land there and form a soil
