    Assimilation
    Decomposition
    Denitrification
    Nitrification
  •  20
  • The Nitrogen cycle is faster than the phosphorus cycle:
    True
    False
  •  10
  • The phosphorus cycle is mostly controlled by geologic processes:
    False
    True
  •  10
  • The process by which Carbon in the air is captured and brought to the surface?

    Nitrification
    Denitrification
    Assimilation
    Nitrogen-fixation
  •  20
  • This is the burning of substances such as wood and fossil fuels which can release carbon:
    Sedimentation
    Decomposition
    Combustion
    Cellular respiration
  •  20
  • The process by which water travels vertically below ground:
    Precipitation
    Transpiration
    Surface run-off
    Infiltration
  •  20
  • The process by which plants release water:
    Evaporation
    Photosynthesis
    Condensation
    Transpiration
  •  20
  • The process by which water vapour cools down and converts to its liquid form:
    Condensation
    Transpiration
    Precipitation
    Evaporation
  •  20
  • Indicator species are used to determine the volume of nitrogen in an ecosystem:
    False
    True
  •  10
  • Explain why the phosphorus cycle is faster or slower than the nitrogen cycle:
    The phosphorus cycle is slower than the nitrogen cycle because it is mostly controlled by geologic processes such weathering and tectonic activity.
