In the geosphere in a rock called carbonate
Fossil Fuels
Phosphorous enters the biosphere by plants absorbing the phosphorous in the soil with their roots where the plants incorporate it into their tissues. Animals then ingest the plant.
They release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere through respiration, through their waste, and through combustion of fossil fuels.
The atmosphere
Phosphorous enters the soil when rocks break down releasing the phosphorous, and by organism excreting their excess phosphorous
Atmosphere, soil, plants, animals
the atmospheric component
C. photosynthesis
Chemical reactions, radioactive decay, growth and decay of organisms, and the radiation of energy.

Phosphorous is rarely a?
What is the gaseous form of carbon
Name one carbon reservoir other than the Earth's Crust
How does phosphorous enter the biosphere?
The origin of energy that drives the water cycle?
Where is carbon stored in the long-term cycle?
Nitrogen is primarily found in what state of matter?
These can be dug up from the ground and burned as a source of energy.
Energy is transferred between systemsm but it cannot be created or destroyed.
What is the four processes that matter and energy are exchanged in the earth systems?
Changes nitrogen in the soil into usable forms
The movement of water from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface and back to the atmosphere is?
Rain, snow, and hail are forms of?
What role and effect do humans have in the carbon cycle?
When the water loses energy, it __________ to form water droplets, such as those that form clouds.
Evaporation of water from plant parts is?
What is the main reservoir of nitrogen
What is the ultimate source of energy?
All cycles of matter share this componenet except for the phosphorous cycle
How does phosphorous enter the geosphere?
Water that flows over the ground into streams is known as?
This electrical process aids in the formation of nitrates
When energy transfer occurs, matter less organized with time, thus the universe's energy is spead out more uniformly over time.
