Question

did you build a biogeochemical cycle? match biogeochemical cycle characteristics in column one to nitrogen - specific examples in column two. characteristics of biogeochemical cycles: an element flows through a system; an element is in organisms and abiotic substances; molecules can be recycled again and again; molecules are converted to different molecules. your nitrogen map: nitrogen is in the atmosphere, water environment and several organisms; molecules like n₂ were used by organisms, but n₂ was also an output for other organisms; nitrogen flows through the marine system; nitrogen - bearing molecules can be converted into other nitrogen - bearing molecules

Explanation:

1. "An element flows through a system" - Nitrogen flows through the marine system as nitrogen moves through different parts of the marine - environment.
2. "An element is in organisms and abiotic substances" - Nitrogen is in the atmosphere, water environment, and several organisms, existing in both living and non - living components.
3. "Molecules can be recycled again and again" - Molecules like N₂ were used by organisms, but N₂ was also an output for other organisms, showing a recycling process.
4. "Molecules are converted to different molecules" - Nitrogen - bearing molecules can be converted into other nitrogen - bearing molecules, indicating chemical transformations.

Answer:

1. An element flows through a system - Nitrogen flows through the marine system
2. An element is in organisms and abiotic substances - Nitrogen is in the atmosphere, water environment, and several organisms
3. Molecules can be recycled again and again - Molecules like N₂ were used by organisms, but N₂ was also an output for other organisms
4. Molecules are converted to different molecules - Nitrogen - bearing molecules can be converted into other nitrogen - bearing molecules
