B1.6 0.0 / 5 ? BiologyDecayThe Carbon CycleGCSEAQA Created by: phoebehannaCreated on: 19-01-16 20:48 Decomposers Microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi 1 of 13 Waste Products The waste products produced are carbon dioxide, water and the nutrients 2 of 13 Detritivors(Detritus Feeders) Maggots, worms eat organisms and produce waste material 3 of 13 Stable Community When the processes: energy from the sun, nutrients from soil, decomposition and consumers gain energy through eating are all balanced 4 of 13 How does warmth help with decay? Effects speed of reactions by bacteria being able to grow faster and increase in energy 5 of 13 How does moisture help with decay? Breaks down substances 6 of 13 How does oxygen help with decay? Is needed for microorganisms to respire 7 of 13 Photosynthesis The only process that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, plants use it to make carbohydrates and proteins 8 of 13 Respire Both plants and animals respire, putting carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere 9 of 13 The Carbon Cycle Carbon is constantly being cycled- from the air, through food chains and back into the air 10 of 13 Combustion equation Fuel+Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide+Water 11 of 13 Respiration equation Glucose+Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide+Water 12 of 13 Photosynthesis equation Carbon Dioxide+Water = Glucose= Oxygen 13 of 13
