2. The element

3. Nitrogen is needed for building macromolecules of
4. How are the water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles similar?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  1. The water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun. This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.
  2. Carbon is found in all organic compounds, but that doesn't mean that all compounds that contain carbon are organic.
  3. Nitrogen in the reduced form is the major component of the three most important biological macromolecular structures: (i) proteins/polypeptides, (ii) DNA and RNA, and (iii) polymers of amino sugars.
  4. Water, nitrogen and carbon cycles. Carbon moves from the atmosphere and back via animals and plants. Nitrogen moves from the atmosphere and back via organisms. Water moves on, above, or below the surface of the Earth.

Hope I helped answer the questions:)

Answer:

1. sun

2. carbon

3. nucleic acids, DNA, RNA, and proteins

4. There could be more than one answer. One answer is that water, carbon, and nitrogen all exist in different forms within one cycle. For example, water can exist in ice or liquid water and nitrogen can exist as NH4 or NO3. Another answer is that they both go through cycles that complete the process to produce the materials necessary for life on earth. Life is dependent on all three cycles.
