his nutrient is cycled between living things and the soil. Plants absorb this nutrient from the soil and turn it into organic co

mpounds through assimilation. Animals eats the plants and pass the nutrient through the food chain from one organism to another. When the animal dies, it decomposes and returns the nutrient back to the soil. The nutrient can also enter the soil through weathering and erosion.

The nutrient is phosphorus

<h3>The phosphorus cycle</h3>

Phosphorus cycles between living components of the earth (biosphere) and the soil (geosphere).

The element's reservoir is mainly the sediments of the ocean and rocks. Phosphorus gets into the soil by weathering of rocks.

Plants are able to pick the element up from the soil and animals are able to get their phosphorus by consuming plants.

When plants and animal die, their body decomposes and the phosphorus in them enters the soil.

Thus, the cycle being referred to in the illustration is the phosphorus cycle.

What are the advantages and limitations to using fossils to study the living things that lived in the past?​
ollegr [7]

~Hello

Fossils are one of the best evidence of evolution, mainly because they are the remains of living organisms from the past, which allow us to compare them with living organisms. However, the fossil record is notoriously incomplete and it is also biased in favor of animals with hard body parts, such as skeletons and shells. Soft bodied organisms and soft body parts are rarely preserved and there are often huge gaps in some evolutionary sequences. For example, Archaeopteryx is the earliest known bird, but it is already a bird, nothwithstanding some of the features that are unquestionably reptilian. The earliest known reptile with feathers is Longisquama, but there is a gap of some 75 million years between Longisquama and Archaeopteryx, and nothing has yet been found that are intermediate between these two important fossils.

Finally, DNA is virtually unobtainable from fossils, making it nearly impossible to compare the DNA of most fossils with living organisms. In terms of phylogenetic tree construction, DNA data is far superior to fossil evidence. However, if not for the existence of fossils, DNA data alone would be unconvincing as evidence of evolutionary change.

What is the major function of the neuron?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Pass information by generating electric signals

Explanation:

Neurons are the fundamental unit of the nervous system. Neurons send information across the body through generation of  electric signals called as action potential. There are basically three types of neurons  

a) Sensory neurons which carry information from the sense organs in the form of impulse to the central nervous system (CNS)

b) Motor neurons – These carry information from the CNS to the body parts such as sense organs, muscles etc.

c) Interneurons – They are connecting neurons which are responsible for transferring information from one neuron to the other neuron.

How do organisms get the energy they need
IRISSAK [1]
Hi there!

Great question!

There are different organisms on Earth and they all get energy differently.

For example, a plant gets its energy from the sun. The sun shines down on it, giving the plant energy to grow.

On the other hand, a wolf would get its energy from the food it eats. When the wolfs belly is full, it has more energy to run around and catch more of it!

Hope this helps! :D
