I believe the answer is decomposers. Does that make sense in the context of what you have learned in class? If you look up "the circle of phosphorous," you can see images that show that decomposers, like fungi and microbes break down dead animals and plants using some of their phosphorous, but what isn't used is returned to the soil. The same can be said for sulfur. Decomposers like fungi and bacteria break down dead plants and animals and return sulfur to the soil. 

I want to warn you that there is a slight possibility that I might be incorrect. I am still pretty sure I am right. The only thing that makes me question the correctness of my answer is another brainily question I saw when i was looking up this stuff. Two people had responded to that Middle schoolers question and had said the answer was producers. They didn't give any explanation for their answers. So, I am confused as to how they both got the same answer that was different from mine.  No material that I have seen regarding either the phosphorous cycle or sulfur cycle has shown plants as RETURNING the most sulfur and phosphorous into the soil. Usually, it has been depicted that producers, such as plants, UTILIZE the most phosphorous and Sulfur from the soil.

What subatomic particle is transferred to the electron transport system from the krebs cycle?
mario62 [17]
<span>Electrons are transferred via Hydrogen atoms bound to NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). Essentially, the krebs cycle harvests electrons (Hydrogen atoms) from pyruvates in the inter-membrane space via NADH and these feed into the electron transport chain to power ATP synthase to generate ATP.</span>

Item 6 Over a 10-year period, a nation of 100 million people has a birth rate of 15 million, but a death rate of 5 million and a
likoan [24]

Decreasing first and then growing happening to the population because at every year 10.20 percent population is growing.

<h3>How can you figure out a population's growth rate when there are births and deaths?</h3>

The net reproduction rate (r) is computed as follows: r = (births-deaths)/population size, or simply multiply by 100 to get in percentage terms. Because the population has grown so much, many more people have been added. When a population grows at a steady rate year after year, this is referred to as exponential growth.

Migration is the the number of immigrants minus the number of emigrants over a given time period, divided by the number of person-years lived by the receiving country's population during that time period. It is calculated as the number of net migrants per 1,000 people.
