Biogeochemical Cycles and Our Plants


The changes in our plant that we have noticed was that they have grown at least one or 2 inches. Also there is some purple under the leaves and the plant is mostly green now. Another observation is that there may be two of the same plant.

Our plants participate in the water cycle which is the movement of water in the biosphere by taking the water and moving down the leaves and into the roots and eventually into the soil. This relates to what we observed because it rained last weekend so water went down the leaves and into the soil of the plants which helped it grow.

Our plants participate in the carbon and nitrogen cycle by taking in carbon dioxide and giving out oxygen. Also they absorb energy and transfer it into the soil. Our plant has a role in this because it takes in the carbon dioxide and energy to help the soil and plants next to it and the oxygen for the animals and people around it.
