3 Energy is not the only thing that moves through the ecosystem. Atoms are never destroyed... only transformed http://mff.dsisd.net/Environment/Cycles.htm Take a deep breath. The atoms you just inhaled may have been inhaled by a dinosaur millions of years ago. http://educ.queensu.ca/~fmc/august2004/pages/dinobreath.html ENERGY & MATTER

4 4 elements make up 95% of the body in most organisms CARBON HYDROGEN OXYGEN NITROGEN The same molecules are passed around again and again within the biosphere in ___________________________ BIOGEOCHEMICAL CYCLES

5 WATER CYCLE = ___________________ HYDROLOGIC CYCLE http://www.urbanrivers.org/water_cycle.html

6 WHY IS WATER IMPORTANT? Makes up 60-70% of your body Oxygen and Hydrogen are found in all the ________________________: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids Hydrogen in H 2 O supplies protons (H + ) & electrons for_______________ http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/molecule.htm building blocks of cells photosynthesis

7 WHY IS WATER IMPORTANT? Water is a good _________________ Many molecules dissolve in water so it provides a place for chemical reactions to happen Water doesn’t change temperature easily so it helps with ________________________ http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/molecule.htm SOLVENT TEMPERATURE REGULATION

8 Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers or lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves the river, lake, or ocean and goes into the air. Evaporation Part one of the water cycle

9 People sweat and plants transpire. Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water out of their leaves. Transpiration gives evaporation a bit of a hand in getting the water vapor back up into the air. » Do plants sweat?

10 Water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. Evaporation Condensation Part 2 of the Water Cycle

11 Rain or Snow??? Rain occurs when tiny cloud droplets collide to form bigger droplets. This keeps happening until the droplet is too heavy for the air to support it. The droplet then begins to fall, colliding with more cloud droplets as it gains in size. If the liquid water does not encounter a deep layer of sub-freezing air, it will remain liquid and fall to the ground as rain. Snow occurs when the layer of the atmosphere from the surface of the earth through the cloud is entirely below freezing. The precipitation falls from the cloud as snow and does not melt at all while falling to the ground.
