this is little bit knowledge about phosphorus cycle

2.  Important part of ATP molecules
 Part of cell membrane
 Part of our bones and teeth
 Limiting factor for plant growth
 Part of nucleic acids

3.  Is a biogeochemical cycle- SEDIMENTRY
CYCLE
 It describes the movement of phosphorus
through lithosphere, hydrosphere ,
biosphere.
 Unlike many other biogeochemical cycles ,
atmosphere does not play a significant role
in movement of phosphorus.

4.  Phosphate is released by erosion of rocks.
 Plants and fungi take up the phosphate with
their roots through assimilation.
 Phosphorus moves from producers to
consumer via food chain.
 It may seep from groundwater to soil ,
overtime forming into rock.
 When these rocks erodes , the cycle begins
again.

7.  Mineralization of phosphate is carried out by
enzyme- PHOPHATASE
 Solublization of inorganic phosphate-
bacteria – Actinomycetes , Bacillus
fungi- Aspergillus , Penicillum

8.  Too much phosphate cause health problems
 Reduces plant growth
 EUTROPHICATION
