The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical cycle because it moves ?

between the 4 different spheres

only between living things (biosphere)

What happens when organisms die and decay?

Their nitrogen returns to the soil as ammonium

Their nitrogen moves to the air as nitrogen gas

Their nitrogen becomes tapped in clay and is unusable

During photosynthesis, carbon is moved from which reservoir (sink) to which reservoir (sink)?

From the atmosphere to the terrestrial biosphere.

From the troposphere to the terrestrial biosphere.

From the lithosphere to the terrestrial biosphere.

From the hydrosphere to the terrestrial biosphere

If the atmosphere is 78% N 2 , why can't we just get our nitrogen by breathing?

We have no mechanism to break the triple bond of nitrogen between the atoms.

Our lungs would be damaged by the N2.

We need Oxygen for cellular respiration.
