| UNIT TITLE: BIOGEOCHEMICAL CYCLES ***All notes taken are to be in your Interactive Notebook and done in Cornell format--CLICK for information. Remember to label and date all pages in your Interactive Notebook. STANDARDS: 7. Each element on Earth moves among reservoirs, which exist in the solid earth, in oceans, in the atmosphere, and within and among organisms as part of biogeochemical cycles. As a basis for understanding this concept, students know: a. The carbon cycle of photosynthesis and respiration and the nitrogen cycle. b. The global carbon cycle: the different physical and chemical forms of carbon in the atmosphere, oceans, biomass, fossil fuels, and the movement of carbon among these reservoirs. |
