Compare the nitrogen, carbon, and oxygen cycles

Biology

Kamila [148]3 years ago

The main difference is the way how the three of those cycles are performed. For example, as nitrogen is abundant then it cannot be used by plants or animals in its gas form. The Carbon cycle does not need an especial process like the one of the Nitrogen. Plants can take carbon dioxide and is used for the photosyntesis process. All three cycles are found in soil. Oxygen cycles recycles the oxigen.

These 3 cycles have a  part of their cycle where they exist in gaseous form. The three cycles are also critical to the living organisms on earth.

The differences are that nitrogen cannot be used in its gaseous form by living organism and has to be fixed in the soil to nitrites through the process of nitrification.

his nutrient is cycled between living things and the soil. Plants absorb this nutrient from the soil and turn it into organic co
djverab [1.8K]

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.

Advantages of constant body temperaure
Leya [2.2K]
Proteins function optimally at a specific temperature. So if you get too hot or too cold, biochemical reactions in your body start to function less well. If the situation becomes extreme enough, they can cease to function well enough to sustain life. 

Warm-blooded animals have an advantage over cold-blooded ones in that their bodies automatically try to maintain the optimal termperature for things in their bodies to function. Cold-blooded animals depend on the environmental temperature to do this for them. That's why reptiles are very sluggish when they're cold, but will "wake up" when they get warm. 

The cost to this benefit is that metabolically, warm-blooded animals require a lot more fuel to run their bodies. It's very energy-intensive to maintain a constant body temperature. Cold-blooded animals require far less fuel than warm-blooded ones relative to their size. 

The way that proteins operate in a specific temperature is also true of the pH in your body which is also very tightly maintained.
