Attraction of water molecules to other particles

-Maintains stable heat balanace
-Universal Solvent
-Major component of cells and intercellular/extracellular fluid
-Organisms require water for a stable environment

Consists of Cellular Resp and Photosynthesis

Molecules makde of Carbon and Hydrogen

Releases Carbon
Volcanoes and Burning Fuel

Carbon is stored
Coal/Petroleum

ATP, DNA, Amino Acids

Convers N2 into compounds that are usuable by plants, usually NO3 or NH3
Can be accomplished with lightning or bacteria

Converts NH3 into NO3
Converts compounds into NO3 so they can be usuable by bacteria

NO3 breaks down into N2
Often happens in low o2 areas, bacteria uses the 02 for cell resp and photosynthesis

Any plant apart of the Fabacae family
(Beans, Lentil, Peas)

Movement of phosphates from earth to organisms and then back around

-Bones/Teeth
-ATP
-DNA
-Cell Membranes

Buildup of nutrients in aquatic ecosystems

Overgrowth of microscopic algae in fresh salt or wetland waters

Rocks -> Ocean Floor/Bones & Teeth -> Weather

Decomposers -> Phosphates in Soil/Water -> Food Webs
