Biochemical Cycles Review Environmental

Rain, hail and snow are all types of this; one of the ways water is represented in the water cycle

• evaporation

• precipitation

• condensation

• sublimation

This process is carried out by plants and takes carbon out of the atmosphere

• photosynthesis

• cellular respiration

• transcription

• translation

NGSS.HS-PS3-1

The movement of water from plants into the atmosphere

• transpiration

• evaporation

• condensation

• percipitation

Tags

NGSS.MS-ESS2-4

When plants and animals die they inevitably reintroduce their carbon back into the environment

• consumption

• absorption

• decomposition

• competition

NGSS.MS-LS2-3

The process by which nitrogen gas is returned back to the earth.

• denitrification

• nitrogen fixation

• nitrogen inhalation

• nitrogen deposition

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS2-3

This form of energy is formed from free flowing electrons

• thermal

• sound

• chemical

• electric

NGSS.MS-PS2-3

The global water cycle has a fixed amount of water that does not change. It would be considered this type of system.

• open system

• closed system

• punctuated system

• none of the above
