Best Answer

Answ2. Any phosphorous released into the atmosphere or the waterways will quickly make its way to the oceans, where it will be absorbed by animals living there.

Our phosphate sources for industry and agriculture come from two sources;

rock phosphate made from the bodies of fossil sea creatures;

and from Guano, droppings from sea birds, rich in phosphorous because of their marine diet.
