  4. Three hundred trout are needed to support one man for a year. The trout, in turn, must consume 90,000 frogs, that must consume 27 million grasshoppers that live off of 1,000 tons of grass.-- G. Tyler Miller, Jr., American Chemist (1971)

  5. Cycles • Water • Carbon • Nitrogen

  6. Water cycle • Transpiration • Condensation • Run off • Respiration • Evaporation • Precipitation • Water vapor • Percolation • Water storage • Ground water • Sublimation

  8. Carbon cycle • Photosynthesis • Death and decomposition • Combustion • Atmospheric CO2 • Cellular respiration • CO2 dissolved in water • Fossil Fuels • Sediments • Limestone

  10. Nitrogen Cycle • Atmospheric nitrogen (N2) cannot be used by most organisms • Nitrogen fixation • lightning, biological, industrial • Only bacteria found in soil and nodules of plants can change to usable form by ‘fixation’ • Change to NH3 • Ammonification • passing ammonia from animals through decay or urine • Assimilation • use of ammonia and nitrates by plants and then to animals • Nitrification • used by plants changing nitrogen into nitrates or nitrites • Denitrification • bacteria (anaerobic) that use nitrogen as final electron acceptor of respiration and pass N2 back into the atmosphere

  12. Classification Activity • Kingdom • Phylum • Class • Order • Family • Genus • species
