1 Carbon Cycle 1. What is a fossil? 2. What is the difference between a renewable and non-renewable resource? 3. Do you think fossil fuels are renewable or non- renewable? Explain your reasoning. 4. What is one disadvantage of using fossil fuels as our primary source of energy? Write in complete sentences! Don’t talk during the Catalyst!

2 Objectives By the end of today, all SWBAT…  Identify the forms and sources of carbon  Describe the 6 steps of the carbon cycle, and how humans affect it

3 What’s good?  Catalyst Review  Carbon!  Steps of the carbon cycle  Musical chairs  Independent practice  Exit question  Worksheet  Pack from yesterday  Study Guide  Quiz tomorrow! AGENDA HOMEWORK

4 Intro Vocabulary  Carbon = an element that is found in all living/dead things  Fossil fuels = energy sources formed from the fossils of dead organisms  Fossil fuels are made of carbon  Examples: oil, coal, natural gas

5 Key Point #1: Carbon is found in different forms and different sources  Sources of carbon – Plants – Animals – Soil – Fossil fuels – Dead things – Atmosphere

6 Key Point #2: Carbon moves from source to source in five different processes (steps)

7  Photosynthesis  Respiration  Decomposition  Combustion (fossil fuel burning)  Gas exchange Five steps of the carbon cycle

8 Section 2.2 Summary – pages 46 - 57 Carbon Cycle A

9 A  Process: Cellular respiration  Illustration Description: Arrow points from plants to atmosphere  Definition: plants and animals break down organic carbon to CO 2  Money Analogy: returning money (CO 2 ) to the bank

10 Respiration CO 2

11 Section 2.2 Summary – pages 46 - 57 Carbon Cycle B

12 B  Process: Photosynthesis  Illustration Description: Arrow points from atmosphere to plants  Definition: plants convert CO 2 into glucose (sugar)  Money Analogy: taking money out of the bank as dollars

13 Photosynthesis + CO 2

14 Section 2.2 Summary – pages 46 - 57 Carbon Cycle C

15 C  Process: Combustion  Illustration Description: from factory to atmosphere  Definition: burning fossil fuels releases CO 2  Money Analogy: returning money (CO 2 ) to the bank

16 Combustion CO 2 !!!!

17 Section 2.2 Summary – pages 46 - 57 Carbon Cycle D D

18 D  Process: Gas exchange  Illustration Description: arrows between water and atmosphere  Definition: CO 2 dissolves in and out of water  Money Analogy: money in and out of bank

19 Gas exchange Water CO 2

20 Section 2.2 Summary – pages 46 - 57 Carbon Cycle E

21 E  Process: Decomposition  Illustration Description: dead animals to underground  Definition: carbon stored as fossil fuels after things die  Money Analogy: money hidden under the bed

22 Decomposition C C C C C C C

23 What step of the carbon cycle???  Involves plants removing CO 2 from the atmosphere?  Involves plants and animals releasing CO 2 into the atmosphere?  Involves a human activity releasing CO 2 into the atmosphere?  Adds and releases CO 2 into the atmosphere at the same time?

24 Musical Chairs

25 Take the carbon cycle a step farther…  Answer questions 16 - 20 on your classwork  Work together  Think hard  Answer thoughtfully

26 Independent Practice  Individual work.  Work hard.  Think critically.

27 Exit Questions Write in complete sentences! Don’t talk during the Exit Question! DESCRIBE what occurs in THREE of the following steps of the carbon cycle: photosynthesis, cellular respiration, decomposition, gas exchange, combustion HOMEWORK: Worksheet # 1 – 8 Back is Extra Credit
