Questão 10
Questão
Transpiration is sweat.
Questão 11
Questão
The soil in the ground determines what plants grow where.
Questão 12
Questão
An aquifer is an permeable rock site where water can pass through easily and the water below this is also called groundwater.
Questão 13
Questão
Seepage from Ground and Runoff from surface are two ways water travels from land to ocean.
Questão 14
Questão
Runoff only includes flows from rivers and/or streams.

Questão 17
Questão
Most of the carbon located on Earth is in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Questão 18
Questão
Carbon enters the biotic parts of the ecosystem through water.
Questão 19
Questão
The function of plants in the forest is to take carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen.
Questão 20
Questão
Carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere when any living thing exhales.
Questão 21
Questão
A primary producer is a living thing that can make food on its own.
Questão 22
Questão
When primary and secondary consumers die the carbon stays in their bodies.
Questão 23
Questão
Detritus feeders don't contribute in anything at all in the carbon cycle.
Questão 24
Questão
Fossil fuels are oils, gasses, and coal.
Questão 25
Questão
Carbon gets in the ocean because it's in the atmosphere and seashells also release it.
Questão 26
Questão
Plants and animals get nitrogen from nitrogen fixation if they can't get it from the atmosphere.
Questão 27
Questão
Nitrogen fixing bacteria turn the nitrogen into nitrogen gas.
Questão 28
Questão
Air is a major reservoir for ammonia.
Questão 29
Questão
Herbivores need nitrogen because they eat plants and plants need nitrogen.
Questão 30
Questão
Dentrification is the process in which carbon is converted into energy.
Questão 31
Questão
There's no phosphorous in plants or animals.
Questão 32
Questão
Phosphates return to the ecosystem and/or plants when an animal or a plant dies.
Questão 33
Questão
Phosphorous carried by runoff to the oceans gets concentrated in: marine rocks, fish's body, sea plants.
Questão 34
Questão
Phosphates are incorporated into aquatic plants and animals by water.
Questão 35
Questão
The difference between the phosphorous cycle and the water, carbon and nitrogen cycle is in phosphorous's cycle phosphates never return to the atmosphere.
