Nutrient Cycles Notes: Carbon Cycle * Carbon EXISTS in abiotic environment as: 1. Carbon dioxide [CO2 (gas)] in the atmosphere Æ dissolves in H2O to form HCO32. Carbonate rocks (limestone & coral = CaCO3) 3. Deposits of coal, petroleum, and natural gas Æ derived from once living things 4. Dead organic matter (humus in the soil) * Carbon ENTERS biotic environment through: 1. Photosynthesis: changes light energy to chemical energy * Carbon RETURNS to atmosphere by: 1. Respiration Æ CO2 2. Decomposition / Decay 3. Burning * Carbon Cycle and Humans: 1. Removal of photosynthesizing plants 2. Combustion of fossil fuels
Nitrogen Cycle * ~79% of air is N2 gas * N is essential to plants and animals * Plants and animals can’t use N2 gas * Usable N: ammonia (NH3) or nitrate (NO3-) * Conversion of atmospheric N2 to NH3 and NO3-: Æ Nitrogen fixation 1. Aquatic ecosystems: blue-green algae 2. Terrestrial ecosystems: bacteria on root nodules of legumes (peas, beans, alfalfa, clover) 3. Lightening * Nitrogen RETURNS to soil by: 1. decomposition of once living things Æ ammonifying bacteria + fungi 2. exists in soil as nitrate (NO3-), nitrite (NO2-), and ammonia (NH3) * Nitrogen returns to atmosphere by: 1. denitrifying bacteria Nitrogen Cycle and Humans: 1. Nitrogen required for genetic materials (DNA, RNA, amino acids)
Phosphorus Cycle * Major environmental reservoir: rocks 1. Leaching: water dissolves phosphates in rocks and carries to lake, stream, etc. 2. Dissolved phosphate: used by plants and passed through food chain 3. Animals return phosphorus to environment by: * excretion * death and decay Phosphorus Cycle and Humans: 1. Phosphates mined for fertilizers Æ returns P to soil 2. Erosion: P in soil and rocks washed away into water systems
