| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which process removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during the carbon cycle? | photsythesis |
| In the carbon cycle, carbon is transferred from animals to plants in what form? | carbon dioxide |
| The process by which nitrogen gas is released into the atmosphere by bacteria is called what? | denitrification |
| What is the role of plants in the carbon cycle? | plants take carbon dioxide that is released by other animals |
| About how much energy from the first level/primary consumers is transferred to the second level/secondary consumers? | 10% |
| What is true about denitrification and nitrogen fixation? | denitrification puts nitrogen in the air as N2 gas and nitrogen fixation changes nitrogen to a form usable by plants |
| What best describes how the flow of energy is related to matter cycles? | the carbon from carbon dioxide is used to make glucose which plants use for energy |
| Where is carbon NOT found? | ammonia |
| What does plants use nitrogen for? | make proteins |
| Where does almost all the energy that flows through food chains comes from? | the sun |
| What is the process by which liquid water turns into water vapor? | evaporation |
| How is carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere? | cellular respiration, combustion, & decomposition |
| True or False. Nitrogen gas in the air cannot by used by plants in nitrogen gas form. | true |
