What is the importance of the nitrogen and carbon cycle to us?
The importance of the nitrogen and carbon cycle to us is critical to the survival of all living things on Earth. Nitrogen is absorbed by plants in the food creation process known as photosynthesis. The carbon cycle helps to reduce the amount of carbon in the atmosphere and return it to the soil to creat organic material.
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 role of the atmosphere in the carbon cycle?
Nature produces the vast bulk of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Rotting trees, and dead matter produce over 90% of the current levels of carbon dioxide. Man produces between 3 and 6 percent of all CO2 annually.
Does erosion have anything to do with the Carbon Cycle?
Erosion indirectly affects the carbon cycle. When erosion occurs, it can transport organic matter, such as decaying plants and animals, to rivers and oceans. This organic matter can then be decomposed by bacteria, releasing carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. Additionally, erosion can also expose fresh rocks, which can weather and release carbon into the soil and water.
What role do consumer in the nitrogen cycle?
consumers eat the plant which has nitrogen in it and when the animal, or organism dies the nitrogen goes back to the soil and to the plant est.
What effect to soil and environment when microorganisms stop their function?
The matter cycle would stop.
When does carbon escape into the air and ground in the water cycle?
The carbon cycle moves carbon mainly along the seawater and soil.
What is a similarity that the nitrogen cycle and carbon cycle have in common?
both found in soil
Decaying plant add carbon to the soil?
Carbon Cycle-short and sweet :)
In what ways do microorganisms contribute to soil fertility?
They carry out cycling of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur, play a role in soil structure formation, decomposition of organic matter, toxin removal, suppressing soil-borne plant diseases, in promoting plant growth, and in changes in vegetation
What is a process in which carbon moves from the air to the soil to animals and back to the air?
Carbon Cycle
Explain the role of a clover in the nitrogen cycle?
The role of clover in the Nitrogen cycle is to pull Nitrogen from the air back into the soil.
What cycle turns dead plants and animals into fertile soil?
carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle
Are microorganisms that live in the soil heterotrophs or autotrophs?
The vast majority of microorganisms that live in soil is bacteria. Soil bacteria can be classified as either heterotrophs or autotrophs depending on how they receive nutrients. Heterotrophic bacteria use organic compounds to get the necessary amount of carbon; whereas, autotrophic bacteria is able to get it from either carbon dioxide, inorganic compounds, or sunlight.
How do soil microorganisms help to maintain a healthy soil or plant?
Microscopic actinomycetes are a type of bacteria that plays a healthy role in the soil. They decompose organic matter and create humus.
Decaying plants add nitrogen to the soil?
The dead animals and plants remain organs breaks down and that remains turn into carbon.
What is soil aggregate?
soil aggregate is compressing soil together by microorganisms
