The most abundant element in the atmosphere is

• carbon

• hydrogen

• nitrogen

• oxygen

Why do organisms need nitrogen?

• to build proteins

• to create fossil fuels

• to perform cellular respiration

• to perform photosynthesis

Which of the following do(es) not contribute to making nitrogen usable to plants?

Which of the following is not recycled in an ecosystem?

• carbon

• energy

• matter

• water

Why does energy NOT cycle through the environment?

• energy remains constant in an ecosystem

• energy cannot be recovered once it is used or lost

• energy transforms into matter and then cannot be measured

• carnivores end up with all the energy and do not pass that energy on
