The Nitrogen Cycle The Nitrogen cycle is the exchange of nitrogen gas in the earth’s atmosphere and living organism’s. Nitrogen is a necessity to all living organisms in their production of proteins‚ DNA‚ and RNA in their cells . However‚ only a few organisms can use this gas directly‚ due to the fact that it may limit the growth of plants. Nitrogen takes up about 78% of the earth’s atmosphere. The nitrogen cycle has three main chemical transformations‚ including nitrogen fixation‚ nitrification

Charles Parker Investigation 6: The Copper Cycle CHEM 101 Lab-M/630 As an investigation of the copper cycle lab group 6 conducted an experiment on 6 October 2014 at Arizona State University laboratory that would demonstrate the cycle of reactions that copper (Cu) can produce when introduced to with other substances/reactant. The purpose of the investigation was to notice the transformation of a specific quantity of copper wire (g) as it undergoes its coordination reactions until a reduction method

CYCLES IN BIOLOGY This essay will give examples of cycles in biology from different scales of magnification‚ ranging from molecular level to populations and ecosystems. Cycles are sequences of events which repeat themselves in the same order‚ one event leading to the next. There are many examples of these in Biology. Cycles can be seen even at a molecular level in the body. An example of this would include the passage of action potentials down neurones in the nervous system. When the cell membrane

Business Cycle Business Cycle (or Trade Cycle) is divided into the following four phases :- Prosperity Phase : Expansion or Boom or Upswing of economy. Recession Phase : from prosperity to recession (upper turning point). Depression Phase : Contraction or Downswing of economy. Recovery Phase : from depression to prosperity (lower turning Point). Diagram of Four Phases of Business Cycle The four phases of business cycles are shown in the following diagram :- The business cycle starts

LOGISTICS CYCLE Therefore the emphasis is on designing the logistics management information system and inventory management activities‚ rather than central-level activities such as quantification and procurement. However‚ as the logistics cycle demonstrates‚ all these functions are interrelated and so when the logistics system is designed‚ these other activities must be considered‚ such as ensuring that the data required for quantification are collected and that quality monitoring is incorporated

------------------------------------------------- The Processes of the nitrogen cycle Nitrogen fixation Atmospheric nitrogen must be processed‚ or "fixed" (see page on nitrogen fixation)‚ in order to be used by plants. Some fixation occurs in lightning strikes‚ but most fixation is done by free-living or symbiotic bacteria. These bacteria have the nitrogenase enzyme that combines gaseous nitrogen with hydrogen to produce ammonia‚ which is then further converted by the bacteria to make their own organic
