1 Biology Do Now Directions: Take out a sheet of notebook (Do Now sheet), watch the prezi presentation on interspecific and intraspecific competition. The students will copy the definitions of the 2 types of competition as notes. Prezi source:

2 INTERspecific Competition: Competition BETWEEN different species of organisms

3 INTRAspecific Competition: Competition WITHIN the same species of organism

4 Reminders & Announcements
Testing continues for seniors Senior Finals Week: May 13 – 17, 2019

5 Objective Students will know how water cycles through the Earth by creating 2- & 3-dimensional models of the water cycle. Mastery level: 75% or better (75 pts. or better on the water cycle models) Students will know how the Earth cycles nitrogen and phosphorus through living and non-living things by taking notes and answering concept check questions. Mastery Level: 75% or better (3/4)

8 Engage – Nitrogen Cycle & Eutrophication

9 What is Nitrogen? Nitrogen makes up about 78% of our atmosphere.
Nitrogen in the atmosphere it is mostly in the form of ______, which is a compound that plants and animals cannot use. The process of converting nitrogen into compounds that can be used by plants and animals is called the ______________________. N2 Nitrogen Cycle

10 Why we care about nitrogen…
Nitrogen is an essential component of _____________________.The building blocks of life. DNA, RNA and Proteins

11 How does atmospheric nitrogen (N2) get changed into a form that can be used by most living organisms? Four By traveling through one of the ________ processes in the Nitrogen Cycle! (1) Nitrogen Fixation (4) Denitrification Nitrogen Cycle (3) Nitrification (2) Ammonification

12 Process 1: Nitrogen Fixation
___________________ is the process in which the N2 compound in the atmosphere breaks and combines with other compounds. The nitrogen is _________ when it combines with ______________ or _______________. “fixed” hydrogen oxygen N N H N2 N H H Nitrous Oxide (N2O) Ammonia (NH3)

13 Three ways to “fix” Nitrogen
bacteria Main process: Special ____________ convert the nitrogen gas (N2) to ammonia (NH3), which only ________ plants can use (peas, beans). _________________ strikes convert N2 to N2O or NO3. Industrial production. ____________ manipulation turns N2 into NH3 (Fertilizer) some Lightning Chemical

14 Process 2: Ammonification
_____________________ - After all the living organisms have used the ___________________, decomposer bacteria convert the nitrogen to _______________. Ammonification organic nitrogen ammonia H N H H Ammonia Bacteria Organic Nitrogen (proteins)

15 Process 3: Nitrification
H _______________ is the process that converts ammonia (NH3) into nitrites (NO2) and nitrates (NO3) which ____ plants _______ use. Note: Ammonia comes from ______ nitrogen fixation and ammonification How is it done? _____________________ Nitrification N H H most can Both O O N O N Bacteria! O O

16 Process 4: Denitrification
_______________: Process in which nitrogen compounds _____________________ into atmospheric nitrogen (N2 or N2O). The main process is performed by _____________________ in the soil. It can also happen by _____________ fossil fuels. Denitrification convert back bacteria burning N2 NO3 N2O

17 N2 N2O NO3 NH3 (1) Nitrogen Fixation (4) Denitrification
Nitrogen Cycle (2) Ammonification NO3 NH3 (3) Nitrification Ammonia is converted to nitrites and nitrates. Nitrates in Soil Organic nitrogen is converted to ammonia.

18 decomposition by bacteria & fungi
Nitrogen in the air nitrogen fixing plant eg pea, clover animal protein plant made protein dead plants & animals urine & feces denitrifying bacteria root nodules (containing nitrogen fixing bacteria) decomposition by bacteria & fungi nitrates absorbed nitrates ammonia bacteria nitrites bacteria (nitrifying bacteria)

19 Human Impact Combustion Commercial Fertilizers mineral deposits
___________________, releases toxic nitrogen compounds into the atmosphere. ____________________________ release nitrous oxide into the atmosphere and introduce excess nitrogen into the environment. Remove nitrogen from the soil when we mine it for nitrogen rich __________________________. Discharge of ___________________________ releases excess nitrogen into the water ecosystems which disrupts the aquatic balance and kills fish. Commercial Fertilizers mineral deposits municipal sewage

20 Commercial Fertilizers
#1 Are the ______ contributor of new nitrogen in the nitrogen cycle. Added because nitrogen is a ________________ for plant growth. Problems: hard to apply fertilizer and keep it in one area. Runoff, evaporation, etc.. So farmers apply about ___________________ as they need. Extra nitrogen disrupts the ________________. limiting factor twice as much food chain

21 Phosphorus Cycle The phosphorus cycle may also be referred to as the mineral cycle. The phosphorus cycle is the movement of phosphorus from the environment to organisms and then back to the environment. Phosphorus is mainly found in water, soil, and rock. Phosphorus is essential for life. Component of DNA Building block of our bones and teeth.

22 Phosphorus Cycle

23 Phosphorus Cycle Unlike the other cycles, phosphorus cannot be found in air in the gaseous state. The phosphorus cycle is the SLOWEST cycle. Phosphorus is most commonly found in rock formations and ocean sediments as phosphate salts. Phosphate salts that are released from rocks through weathering usually dissolve in soil water and will be absorbed by plants.

24 Phosphorus Cycle Animals absorb phosphates by eating plants or plant-eating animals. When animals and plants die, phosphates will return to the soils or oceans again during decomposition. After that, phosphorus will end up in sediments or rock formations again, remaining there for millions of years. Eventually, phosphorus is released again through weathering and the cycle starts over.

25 Human Impacts on the Phosphorus Cycle
Like nitrogen, increased use of fertilizers increases phosphorus runoff into our waterways and contributes to eutrophication.

26 REMEMBER THIS!!! Most phosphorus is found in rocks and soil.
The phosphorus cycle is the slowest cycle. Excess phosphorus contributes to eutrophication.

27 Phosphorus Cycle Summary
Now you have learned about the phosphorus cycle, check it out on the: Phosphorus Cycle Animation

28 Exit Ticket Questions Explain the major stages of the water, nitrogen and phosphorus cycles. Which cycle is the slowest? Explain the role of nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the nitrogen cycle. What causes eutrophication and how do the nitrogen and phosphorus cycles play a role in eutrophication?
