Name: _____________________ NUTRIENT CYCLE COLOR-CODED WORDSEARCH Date: _____________ Block: _________ DIRECTIONS: 1. 2. For each description given below, write the process described in the blank provided Locate the word in the word search… and color code it as designated below: a. If the process is involved in the Carbon Cycle OR Oxygen Cycle, circle it in BLACK b. If the process is involved in the Phosphorous Cycle, circle it in GREEN c. If the process is involved in the Water Cycle, circle it in BLUE d. If the process is involved in the Nitrogen Cycle, circle it in ORANGE ** IF THE PROCESS OCCURS IN MULTIPLE CYCLES THEN IT SHOULD BE CIRCLED WITH MULTIPLE COLORS!!! DESCRIPTION Chemical process that animals and plants use to obtain energy. Organism that is able to fix nitrogen into a usable form. The process by which a substance moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Types of organisms that serve to break down inorganic waste and deposit into the soil. Process by which liquid water turns into a vapor and is deposited into the atmosphere. Organic material (like coal and oil) that are the remnants of dead/decayed matter from millions of years ago. Occurs when precipitation runs down rocks and mountains causing them to leech out minerals. Process by which water runs down the side of land or soil and is deposited into a body of water. The burning of fossil fuels. Type of bacteria that will put Nitrogen back into the soil or transform it into a usable form. Chemical process by which plants use sunlight to obtain sugars. Process by which nitrogen is extracted from the soil. Process by which water is pulled through the xylem of plants. Process by which water leaves the clouds and is deposited onto the ground by way of rain or snow. The slow settling of water through rocks and minerals in the soil. PROCESS/TERM NUTRIENT CYCLES Carbon/Oxygen? Phosphorous? Water? Nitrogen? REMEMBER... If the process is involved in the Carbon Cycle OR Oxygen Cycle, circle it in BLACK If the process is involved in the Phosphorous Cycle, circle it in GREEN If the process is involved in the Water Cycle, circle it in BLUE If the process is involved in the Nitrogen Cycle, circle it in ORANGE ** IF THE PROCESS OCCURS IN MULTIPLE CYCLES THEN IT SHOULD BE CIRCLED WITH MULTIPLE COLORS!!!
