Phosphorus from fertilizer can runoff into waterways, where it can be carried to the ocean. This excess phosphorus can contribute to algal blooms in the ocean, which can deplete oxygen levels and harm marine life. Proper management practices can help reduce this movement of phosphorus from crops to the ocean.
No, chlorine has a larger atomic radius than phosphorus. Atomic radius decreases as you move from left to right across a period in the periodic table, and phosphorus is to the left of chlorine in the periodic table.
Phosphorus: Chemical weathering and physical weathering are two types of weathering involved in the phosphorus cycle. In chemical weathering, a chemical reaction causes phosphate (A phosphate is a salt of phosphorus acid) rocks to break down and released by lichens can cause chemical weathering. In physical weathering, processes such as wind, rain, and freezing release particles of rock and phosphate into soil. However, most phosphate in run-off settles on lake and ocean bottoms and will not enter the biotic community unless the sediment is disturbed.Nitrogen: Excess nitrate and ammonium that are not taken up by plants mix with rainwater and are washed from the soil into the ground water and streams. This unused nitrogen may settle to ocean, lake, or river bottoms in sediments. Eventually, these sediments will form rock and the nitrogen will not be available. Only after centuries of weathering will the nitrogen be released into the water.
Phosphorus trichloride is a liquid because its molecules have weaker intermolecular forces, allowing them to move more freely and take on a liquid state at room temperature. Phosphorus pentachloride is solid due to stronger intermolecular forces that hold its molecules closely together, resulting in a solid state at room temperature.
The element P (Phosphorus) has a higher first ionization energy than Ca (Calcium). This is because Phosphorus has a smaller atomic size and higher effective nuclear charge compared to Calcium, making it harder to remove an electron from a Phosphorus atom than a Calcium atom.
Carbon has both short-term and long-term biogeochemical cycles, while nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus have primarily long-term biogeochemical cycles. These elements are cycled through various reservoirs in the environment, but the rates at which they move through these cycles differ.

Before the railroads were built, farmers had to haul their crops on wagons. This was one reason the farmers who wanted to export part of their crops settled near rivers or near the Atlantic ocean.
In order to have healthy crops the Egyptians used irrigation techniques to water their crops. Irrigation is the artificial application of water to crops.

Ocean currents.
because it is easyer to move in the ocean
waters of the ocean that move in giant streams are called currents.
As you move away from the ocean it gets less and less windy
you can move crop squares using the hand tool
