1 Carbon Cycle 1. What is the difference between a renewable and non-renewable resource? 2. Describe how fossil fuels are formed over time 3. Are fossil fuels 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 4.3 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 4.3 Agenda  Money analogy  Carbon forms and sources  Steps of the carbon cycle  GP  Musical chairs  How humans impact the carbon cycle  Classwork  Exit question

4 Money and Carbon Is money found in only one form? Where are all the possible places that a $1 bill could go in a period of 10 years? Do you really ever destroy money? When do you make money? Money = _____________________________________ Bank = _______________________________________ Money and Carbon Is money found in only one form? Where are all the possible places that a $1 bill could go in a period of 10 years? Do you really ever destroy money? When do you make money? Money = _____________________________________ Bank = _______________________________________

5 Money analogy: Money is found in many different forms – Checks, credit cards, dollars, change Money moves from the bank to you to other people Money will continue cycling in the system forever Carbon is exactly like money: changes forms and where it is

6 Key Point #1: Carbon is found in different forms and different sources A. Forms of carbon – CO 2 – Organic B. Sources of carbon – Plants – Animals – Soil – Atmosphere – Fossil fuels – Dead things

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

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

9  CO2 in atmosphere: money in the bank  CO2 out of atmosphere: take money out  CO2 in atmosphere: money in bank

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

11 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

12 Respiration CO 2

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

14 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

15 Photosynthesis + CO 2

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

17 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

18 Combustion CO 2 !!!!

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

20 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

21 Gas exchange Water CO 2

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

23 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

24 Decomposition C C C C C C C

25 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?

26 Musical Chairs

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

28 Key Point #3: Humans are dramatically increasing CO 2 levels in two ways

29 Pre-reading Questions 1. Answer pre-reading questions BEFORE reading 2. Read paragraph and  circle key words  Underline key facts 3. Answer post-reading questions

30 Start the Homework

31 Exit Questions Write in complete sentences! Don’t talk during the Exit Question!
