Question

Choose the best description for each cycle. 1. nitrogen a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by weathering, erosion, tectonic activity, and the food chain 2. phosphorus a geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading 3. tectonic a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by fixation, assimilation, ammonification, nitrification, denitrification, and the food chain 4. carbon a geochemical cycle that cycles material by weathering, erosion, deposition, cementation, and metamorphism 5. hydrologic a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and transpiration 6. rock a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by photosynthesis, respiration, and the food chain

Answer 1

1. nitrogen 

a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by fixation, assimilation, ammonification, nitrification, denitrification, and the food chain 

2. phosphorus 

a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by weathering, erosion, tectonic activity, and the food chain 

3. tectonic 

a geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading 

4. carbon 

a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by photosynthesis, respiration, and the food chain 

5. hydrologic 

a biogeochemical cycle that cycles material by evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and transpiration 

6. rock 

a geochemical cycle that cycles material by weathering, erosion, deposition, cementation, and metamorphism 

Hope this answers the question
