MATCH QUESTION
1 min • 5 pts
Match the following key process in the carbon cycle with its explanation.
Combustion
The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Photosynthesis
Plant and algae take in carbon dioxide and convert it into sugars using sunlight and water.
Decomposition
Animals and plants use aerobic _________ ___________ (in the presence of oxygen) to release energy for biological processes. This also releases carbon dioxide.
Cellular respiration
Fungi and bacteria break down dead organisms & organic waste, releasing organic compounds and carbon dioxide.
Fossilization
Under specific conditions, dead organisms can form fossil fuels over thousands & millions of years.

MATCH QUESTION
1 min • 5 pts
Match the following key process in the nitrogen cycle with its explanation.
Nitrogen fixation
This is the uptake of nitrates from the soil by the roots of plants.
Nitrification
Bacteria in the soil and root nodules of leguminous plants convert nitrogen gas into ammonium ions.
Denitrification
The process of turning nitrates into nitrogen gas, and released back into the atmosphere. This is done by denitrifying bacteria.
Ammonification
The process of turning ammonium ions into nitrites and nitrates. This is done by groups of nitrifying bacteria.
Assimilation
In this process, decomposers turn nitrogen compounds from dead organisms and organic waste into ammonium.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
30 sec • 1 pt
Most plants and animals cannot use the nitrogen in nitrogen gas because they cannot break that triple bond. In order for plants to make use of nitrogen, it must be transformed into molecules they can use. How is nitrogen fixed into a useable form?
Denitrifying bacteria turn nitrates into nitrogen gas and released back into the atmosphere.
Specialized nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the soil and root nodules of leguminous plants convert nitrogen gas into ammonium ions.
Uptake of nitrates from the soil by the roots of plants.
Nitrifying bacteria turn ammonium ions into nitrites and nitrates.
Decomposers turn nitrogen compounds from dead organisms and organic waste into ammonium.
