WHY IS WATER IMPORTANT?Makes up 60-70% of your body
Oxygen and Hydrogen are found in all the building blocks of cells carbohydrates, proteins,
nucleic acids, lipids
Hydrogen in H2O supplies protons (H+) & electrons For photosynthesis.

The evaporation of water from the surface of plant leaves = TRANSPIRATION
The return of water tothe surface in the form of rain, snow, sleet, hail, etc.= PRECIPITATION

4 main CARBON reservoirs in BIOSPHERE
CO2 inatmosphere
CO2 inOcean
1.In oceans as CO2 gas 2.In the atmosphere as
dissolved CO2 gas3.On land in organisms,
rocks, soil4. Underground as coal &
petroleum (fossil fuels) and calcium carbonate in rocks

Where does CO2 in atmosphere
come from?
CO2 inatmosphere
CO2 inOcean
1.Volcanic activity 2.Human activity (burning fossil
fuel) 3.Cellular respiration4.Decomposition of dead
organisms

WHY IS CARBON IMPORTANT?
Found in all the building blocks of cells: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids

WHY IS CARBON IMPORTANT?
Carbon in CO2 provides the atoms for glucose production during photosynthesis the fuel that all living things depend on.

WHY IS NITROGEN IMPORTANT?
Nitrogen bases make DNA and RNA
Adenine (nitrogen base) is used in ATP.
Makes AMINO part of amino acids in (proteins)

79% of the atmosphere is made up of NITROGEN gas
(N2)BUT we Can’t use the nitrogen gas
we breathe! The bond in N2 gas is so strong it can only be broken by Lighting, volcanic
activity, and a few special bacteria

Bacteria that live in the soiland in symbiotic relationships withplants called legumes, take nitrogen from the atmosphere and turn it into Ammonia, a form that is usable by plants.
THIS PROCESS IS CALLED
NITROGEN FIXATION

Other bacteria in the soil convertammonia into which plants can also use. The nitrogen we need for proteins, ATP, and nucleic acids comes from
the Food we eat
we breathe!

Bacteria that live in the soilalso carry out the reverse process
Nitrates/ Nitrates → Nitrogen gas.
