Assignment #3

             
      This past week our plant has grew a few inches. It has more and larger leaves.  It is growing more skyward  than out. The purple veins on the leaves were very much more noticeable as well.Our plant supplies for the movement of water in the biosphere by taking in water and breaking it apart the releasing the oxygen back into the atmosphere. The plant then uses the new hydrogen to flourish and gain more leaves.  That is all our plant did over the past weeks.
     In addition, the plant helps the carbon circulate in the atmosphere. Using the process of photosynthesis, the plant takes carbon from the sun then stores the carbon and uses it enlarge itself.  When the plants life is over it will be buried then turned into fossil fuels. When we burn those fuels, carbon is released back into the air to start over again.
    A second cycle my plants apart of is the nitrogen cycle. Our plant consumes the nitrogen from the soil. Then, we eat the plants and take in the nitrogen from the plant.  Then when we ejaculate the nitrogen returns into the ground to be used by plants again.
