Question

Biogeochemical Cycle. - Define the given term.

Answer 1

A biogeochemical cycle is one of several natural cycles, in whichconserved mattermovesthrough thebioticandabioticparts of an ecosystem.In biology, conserved matter refers to the finiteamount of matter, in the form of atoms, that is present within the Earth. Since, according to theLaw of Conservation of Mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed, all atoms of matter are cycled through Earth’s systems albeit in variousforms.

Answer 2

Biogeochemical cycle:

Any of the 'natural pathways' by which primary elements of living material are issued. The term 'biogeochemical' is an abbreviation that refers to the attention of the 'biological', 'geological', and 'chemical aspects of each cycle'.

Parts within the 'biogeochemical cycles' process in different forms from the "nonliving (abiotic)" components of the "biosphere to the living (biotic) components". Some of the major 'biogeochemical cycles' are as follows:

(1) 'Water Cycle' or 'Hydrologic Cycle'

(2) 'Carbon-Cycle'

(3) 'Nitrogen Cycle'

(4) 'Oxygen Cycle'.
