The Carbon Cycle Poppy Matless Carbon is present in all living organisms. When organisms die‚ the carbon is recycled for future generations. 1. Carbon is released as CO2 via respiration and combustion 2. CO2 is absorbed by producers (grass‚ plants etc) 3. Animals feed off of the plant‚ passing on carbon throughout the food chain‚ losing some carbon as CO2 respiration. 4. When the animal dies‚ it is eaten by decomposers‚ and the carbon returns to the atmosphere 5. If decomposition

The Cell Cycle Mitosis: the process by which cells reproduce themselves‚ resulting in daughter cells that contain the same amount of genetic material as the parent cell. Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Cell Division Occurs in a series of stages of phases Interphase occurs before mitosis begins Chromosomes are copied (# doubles) Chromosomes appear as threadlike coils (chromatin) at the start‚ but each chromosome and its copy(sister chromosome) change to sister

CHAPTER 12- THE CELL CYCLE I. Concept 12.1- Cell division results in genetically identical daughter cells A. Overview 1) The continuity of life is based on the reproduction of cells or cell division. 2) The cell division process is an integral part of the cell cycle‚ the life of a cell from the time it is first formed from a dividing parent cell until its own division into two cells. B. Cellular Organization of the Genetic Material 1) A cell’s endowment of DNA‚ its genetic

The cycle of poverty is when people are unable to be educated so they are unable to get a job that pays enough to allow them to end the vicious cycle. There are a few causes for this cycle such as financial instability or the class sizes being too large. To begin with‚ students who are financially

I will start by describing the carbon cycle and how elements of my lifestyle impact the cycle. Photosynthesis converts the Carbon dioxide gas that exists in the atmosphere and in dissolved water to organic carbon. Organic carbon is brought back into carbon dioxide gas by a process called respiration. There are sources of organic carbon underground in the form of fossil fuels‚ human emissions and volcanic activity brings the stored carbon back into the cycle. As a human being who feed‚ move‚ breath

A cycle is defined as any complete round or series of occurrences that repeats or is repeated in the same order and at the same intervals. The natural existence of cycles is highly important without cycles resources would run out and organisms would die. The amount of carbon nitrogen and oxygen on the earth is fixed‚ they can exists in different forms but no more may be added. So that these don’t run out they are cycles so they may be reused. Photosynthesis and respiration are the reverse of each

THE WATER CYCLE Introduction: The water around us has been All the water around is has been here for many‚ many years. The reason is because the same water is just around a cycle. There are several steps in this cycle. In my opinion‚ this is a very interesting and fun project to do. Problem: What is the water cycle? Research: Water is vital for every living thing. When the Sun heats‚ it causes the water in the oceans‚ ponds‚ lakes and even puddles in the street to warm and evaporate

The Brayton Cycle (Jet Engine) Purpose and Objective: The purpose and objective of this experiment is to understand the basic operation of a brayton cycle also to demonstrate the application of basic equations for Brayton cycle analysis. Technical Background: The Brayton cycle depicts the air standard model of a gas turbine power cycle and is used in all applications involving turbine engines; such as jet engines. A simple gas turbine is comprised of three

The Communication Cycle The communication cycle has six different stages that help you communicate your ideas. It also takes into consideration how you put your idea across e.g. body language. The communication cycle can help you to communicate in difficult circumstances where it may be hard to put your ideas across or it may be a sensitive subject. The Six Stages; 1. Ideas occur You have an idea that you want to communicate. 2. Message coded You think about how you are going to

The Cycle of Violence Many issues of domestic violence relate to the three stages of the Cycle of Violence: tension building‚ explosion‚ and the honeymoon phase. All of them are related to some form of abuse‚ which could include: verbal‚ psychological‚ emotional‚ financial‚ physical‚ sexual or spiritual abuse. Many times‚ the cycle repeats‚ without anything ever being done‚ because the person who is being hurt‚ forgives the batterer every time. This is due to denial‚ as the victim believes that
