Foodchains and photosynthesis
In my environment, data is cycled by first collecting raw information, then processing and analyzing it to extract insights. These insights are used to make informed decisions and take actions. After this, the results are reviewed and the cycle starts again based on the new data and feedback.
Chemicals/Nutrients
The pH of a substance thrown in the environment can lead to a degradation of soils and waters.
Ecologists study substances that are cycled through ecosystems, focusing on how these materials, such as carbon, nitrogen, and water, move between living organisms and their environment. They analyze the interactions within ecosystems to understand nutrient cycling, energy flow, and the impact of human activities on these natural processes. Environmental scientists may also study these cycles to address issues like pollution and climate change.
How a substance reacts is determined by its chemical properties, which include factors such as its composition, structure, and reactivity. Understanding these properties can help predict how a substance will interact with other substances in a given environment.

Secondary pollutants are the substances that pollute the air only after they interact with other substance in the Earth's environment. Primary pollutants are injected into the atmosphere directly.
A biodegradable substance is a substance that decays into the environment with no harmful effects on the environment.
Nitrogen is cycled in the environment through a process called the nitrogen cycle. This cycle involves various steps, including nitrogen fixation by bacteria, nitrification, assimilation by plants, and denitrification by bacteria. These processes help to convert nitrogen into different forms that can be used by living organisms and returned to the environment.

Organic carbon is found in living organisms and their byproducts, while inorganic carbon is found in non-living matter like rocks and minerals. Organic carbon is a key component of the carbon cycle, being cycled through living organisms and the environment. Inorganic carbon, on the other hand, is not as readily cycled and can contribute to environmental issues like ocean acidification when released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.

Certain materials must be cycled in our environment to maintain ecological balance and ensure sustainability. Cycling materials, such as water and various nutrients, allows them to be reused and redistributed within ecosystems, supporting the growth and health of living organisms. This process also helps reduce waste accumulation and minimizes the depletion of resources.
