The phosphorus cycle's primary advantage is that it is essential for life, as phosphorus is a critical nutrient for DNA, RNA, and ATP, supporting plant and animal growth. However, a disadvantage is that phosphorus is often a limiting nutrient in many ecosystems, leading to environmental issues such as eutrophication when excess phosphorus from fertilizers runs off into water bodies, resulting in harmful algal blooms and oxygen depletion.
