The document discusses the nitrogen cycle. It notes that nitrogen gas makes up 78% of the atmosphere but most organisms cannot use it in this form. It must be "fixed" by bacteria, which transform nitrogen into a form plants can use through a process called nitrogen fixation. These bacteria often live in nodules on plant roots in a mutualistic relationship, where the bacteria get a home and the plants get fixed nitrogen. Lightning can also fix small amounts of nitrogen. Consumers get the nitrogen they need by eating plants or other organisms. Nitrogen is important as it is required for building proteins and DNA in cells.

The key characteristics of life identified are: sensing and responding to change, reproduction, using energy, growth and development, and being made of one or more cells containing DNA.
The document is a worksheet for a science class that covers topics in scientific process, methods, measurements, models, and the relationship between science and society. It contains multiple choice and short answer questions about key concepts such as the goal of science being understanding nature, the use of observation and experimentation to test hypotheses, methods of measurement and analysis of data, how scientific ideas are introduced and accepted by the peer review process, and examples of how scientific advances can impact technology and society.
The document provides information about biogeochemical cycles. It discusses the water, carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen cycles. For each cycle it describes the reservoirs, how the element moves into living things, how it is returned to the Earth, and human impacts. The document emphasizes that these are continuous cycles that have always recycled these essential elements between living things and the non-living environment.
Carbon and nitrogen are essential elements that cycle through living organisms and the environment. The carbon cycle involves carbon dioxide being absorbed by plants through photosynthesis and released by animals through respiration. When plants can't absorb excess carbon produced, it builds up in the atmosphere and oceans, potentially causing global warming. The nitrogen cycle involves nitrogen gas in the air being "fixed" by bacteria living in plant root nodules or through lightning, making it usable for organisms. Both cycles involve constant movement of the elements through producers, consumers, decomposers and the environment.
This document summarizes several nutrient cycles that are essential for life. It describes the nitrogen cycle, in which nitrogen is fixed from the atmosphere by lightning and bacteria, taken up by plants, and recycled through organisms and the soil with the help of bacteria. It also outlines the carbon/oxygen cycle of photosynthesis and respiration, the water cycle of evaporation and precipitation, and the phosphorus cycle of weathering and plant uptake. It notes how human activities like fossil fuel use, deforestation, septic systems, and phosphorus pollution can disrupt these natural cycles.

[2] However, the tree had gained 74kg, showing that the soil is not the main source of a plant's growth materials. [3] Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight into glucose and oxygen using chlorophyll in the leaves.
This document provides an overview of matter cycles in ecosystems. It explains that matter is recycled through cycles like the carbon and water cycles. In the carbon cycle, carbon dioxide is used by plants and released by animals, with decomposers recycling carbon back into the environment. The water cycle involves evaporation, condensation and precipitation recycling water. While these cycles have traditionally kept ecosystems sustainable, human carbon emissions from fossil fuels are increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide and contributing to global warming, disrupting the natural carbon cycle balance.
This document discusses several key concepts around biogeochemical cycles and how matter is recycled within ecosystems. It explains that matter cycles between living and non-living components, giving examples of important biogeochemical cycles such as water, carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen. It also describes how toxins can become more concentrated as they move up food chains due to biological magnification.
This document discusses respiration, which is an essential process that provides energy for living cells and organisms. Respiration involves reactions between oxygen and carbon-containing substances, such as sugars, which release energy. There are two types of respiration - aerobic respiration uses oxygen to fully break down glucose and produce carbon dioxide and water, while anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen and incompletely breaks down glucose to produce carbon dioxide, water and alcohol or organic acids. Anaerobic respiration is used by microorganisms and muscles when oxygen is limited.

1) The document describes ecological niches and the nitrogen and carbon cycles.
2) An ecological niche includes what a species feeds on, what feeds on it, and how it behaves in its habitat. The niche of black bears is given as an example.
3) The nitrogen and carbon cycles describe how nitrogen and carbon move between the atmosphere, living things, and the lithosphere through natural processes like photosynthesis, cellular respiration, nitrogen fixation, and weathering.
Respiration is the process by which living things obtain energy from food. It occurs in cells through aerobic and anaerobic respiration, producing ATP as energy. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more energy. Respiration and breathing work together, with breathing bringing oxygen into the lungs and removing carbon dioxide, while respiration occurs in cells. Smoking damages respiratory surfaces and increases health risks.
This document discusses cellular respiration, which is the process by which living cells convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). It involves the breakdown of glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and release chemical energy. This energy is then used to drive other biochemical processes in the cell. The document contrasts aerobic respiration, which uses oxygen and produces more ATP, with anaerobic respiration, which does not use oxygen and produces less ATP. Examples of anaerobic respiration include fermentation in yeast during baking and brewing.
Photosynthesis introduction for Advanced Biology 9th gradeStephanie Beck
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy from the sun, carbon dioxide from the air, and water from the soil into glucose and oxygen. It occurs in two stages: in the light reactions, light energy, water, and carbon dioxide are used to produce ATP, NADPH, and oxygen; and in the Calvin cycle, ATP, NADPH, and carbon dioxide are used to produce glucose.
The document discusses three nutrient cycles - carbon, nitrogen, and water. The carbon cycle involves carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere through respiration and combustion, being absorbed by plants through photosynthesis, and passed along the food chain before eventually being released again as carbon dioxide through respiration and decomposition. The nitrogen cycle involves nitrogen in the air being converted to usable forms for plants by nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning, and being recycled between the atmosphere, soil, plants and animals. The water cycle involves water evaporating from surfaces, condensing in the atmosphere, falling as precipitation, running across or infiltrating into the soil, and transpiring from plants before evaporating again.
The document outlines key concepts about biogeochemical cycles. It discusses the water cycle, carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, and phosphorus cycle. For each cycle, it identifies the major steps, including evaporation, condensation, precipitation, runoff, percolation, transpiration, photosynthesis, cellular respiration, nitrogen fixation, nitrification, denitrification, assimilation, ammonification, and decomposition. It emphasizes that these cycles are essential for recycling critical elements like carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, water, and phosphorus that all living organisms depend on.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

water cycle
important
?
Without water, there would be
no life on Earth
(no water= no life)
All organisms are mostly
made of water
Helps transport nutrients and
wastes within an organism
Helps regulate temperature.
Ex: when you sweat, water
evaporates from your skin and
cools your body.

atom?
Do NOT
copy…
just
listen!
#6 on the periodic table. It’s symbol is
“C”.
All living organisms are based on the
carbon atom.
Carbon atoms continually move
through living organisms, the oceans,
the atmosphere, and the crust of the
planet.
24. What are
the basics
of the
carbon
cycle?
Define
them on
your
concept
map!
Photosynthesis-Plants use carbon
dioxide, water, and sunlight to
make sugar molecules (glucose)
and oxygen.
Respiration- Animals take in
oxygen and break down sugar
molecules releasing energy,
carbon dioxide, and water.
Takes CO2 out of the environment
Releases/Adds CO2 to the environment

of the
carbon
cycle?

and energy they need… by
eating plants & animals.
Why is
Carbon
Important?
COPY the
bold blue
parts in the
Importance
box on the
bottom!!
Besides water, the most common
molecules in living things are organic
molecules, or molecules that contain
carbon.
(Carbon is found in all organisms)
• Too much carbon may cause
Global Warming (heating Earth)

35. Describe/Answer the following on
your concept map poster in the
middle box:
What is the % of “free nitrogen” in the
air?
Define nitrogen fixation
Who performs nitrogen fixation?Where
do they live?
Are there additional ways nitrogen can
become “fixed”?
How do consumers get the nitrogen
they need?
Why is nitrogen important?
The
NITROGEN
Cycle
36. The
NITROGEN
Cycle
“Free” Nitrogen
Gas in Air
Nitrogen
fixation
Waste
Death &
Decay/Decomposition
So…nitrogen is RELEASED into soil through decomposition when organisms die,
through waste, and through bacteria releasing it after being fixed.
Nitrogen is RELEASED into the atmosphere by bacteria as well.
Plants can then take it in from the soil. Animals then eat the plants…
37. Where is
nitrogen?
• Take a deep breath. You
just breathed in a whole
bunch of nitrogen!
• 78% of earth’s
atmosphere consists of
Nitrogen.
• Since nitrogen is so
important you’d think
this was a good thing,
right?
Most organisms cannot use
nitrogen in the form N2 or “Free
Nitrogen”.
It must be first combined with
other molecules or “Fixed”
38. How
does
nitrogen
get
“fixed”?
Bacteria who live in “nodules” on
plant roots perform nitrogen
fixation.
This is an example of mutualism:
Bacteria get a home on plant
roots
Plants get the nitrogen “fixed”
into a form they can use
Nitrogen fixation- when bacteria
transform nitrogen into a form
plants can use
Lightning also fixes Nitrogen.
39. Other
Ways to
“Fix”
nitrogen
…
• Lightning can “fix
nitrogen” too!
• This is only a small
amount of nitrogen
fixation.
• It breaks the bond…
nitrogen then combines
with oxygen to create NO3
which is washed into the
soil by rain.
• This is the form of nitrogen
needed by plants
42. In
Conclusion,
Remember…
Water, Carbon, and Nitrogen
are all necessary to living
things.
All three are types of matter
(non-living)
All three are constantly being
cycled through producers,
consumers, decomposers, and
the environment.
46. Copy the following descriptions and match it
with the appropriate symbiotic relationship:
Commensalism, Mutualism, or Parasitism
• Both species benefit
• One species benefits and
one is harmed
• One species benefits and
one is unaffected
