  2. See a video clip about CYCLES IN NATURE - Chap 3 Videoclip (4:06 min) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rapNGB6O8M

  3. http://mff.dsisd.net/Environment/Cycles.htm ENERGY & MATTER Energy is not the only thing that moves through the ecosystem. Atoms are never destroyed . . . only transformed 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

  4. 4 elements make up 95% of the body in most organisms OXYGEN CARBON HYDROGEN 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 H2O supplies protons (H+) & electrons for_______________ building blocks of cells photosynthesis http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/molecule.htm

  7. WHY IS WATER IMPORTANT? SOLVENT 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 ________________________ TEMPERATURE REGULATION http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/molecule.htm

  8. Evaporation • 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. Part one of the water cycle

  9. Transpiration • Do plants sweat? 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.

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

  11. Precipitation 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.
