example of another analogy that could be

used to show the relationship between energy

and the cycles of matter

• wind causing

  a windmill to turn

• a foot pushing a

  bicycle pedal around and around

• all

Earth is a closed system because matter does not enter and matter does not escape. The materials used by organisms cannot be lost; they are recycled.

• True

• False

How might building a new highway affect the cycles of matter?

• trees and other plants are cleared.

• The removal of plants limits the food, energy, and habitats available to other organisms, like animals.

• The removal of plants and animals stops nutrients from being recycled.

• There is no negative impact on the life cycle, there will be a better chance of life.

• It would be possible for there to be natural alternatives
