Use the Diagram to answer the following questions: 1.What are the 4 carbon stores? 2.What important molecules made of carbon are found in the organisms from the biosphere and the ocean? 3.What important molecule in the atmosphere is made of carbon? 4.How does Carbon move between these different stores?
Matter cycles - Carbon Cycle! Learning outcomes… You should all be able to: Identify the conversion of carbon between organic and inorganic storages. Describe the transfer and transformation of carbon as it moves within the ecosystem. Most of you should be able to: Construct your own flow diagram of the carbon cycle. Some of you might be to: Explain these transfers and transformations.
The stores we will be using… Atmosphere Surface water Live animals Live plants Fossil fuels Decomposers Dead organisms and waste products Limestone Soils
Be the Carbon atom!! 1. You will all start at different locations. 2. Write the name of the location here. 3. Write where you have been told to go here. 4. Write how you are going to get there. 5. When you arrive put a cross in the box with the marker.
Come up and draw your journey on the board…
