3.4 Flashcards
plants take light energy from the sun, converting it to chemical energy which creates carbohydrates and releases oxygen.
Photosynthesis
Cellular Respiration
Process where in anything living, carbons exits and goes back into the atmosphere
Nitrogen Fixation
How nitrogen enters the food chain.
Denitrification
Bacteria denitrifies soil and therefore returning nitrogen back.
Photosynthesis to feeding to respiration would be an example of which cycle?
Carbon
Nitrogen fixation to root uptake to feeding to death to decomposition would be an example of which cycle?
Nitrogen
Why is the nitrogen cycle and carbon cycle so similar with their movement of energy and matter?
Because they both go through the food chain by being consumed and move through it the more they stay.
