Matter Cycles

     The Hydrologic cycle focuses on the movement of water through the biosphere. Its major steps are evaporation, condensation, precipitation, transpiration, and runoff. The cycle represents how water is evaporated into the sky by heat and then condenses into the clouds. Which is why we then have rain, hail, or snow. The Carbon cycle shows how carbon cycles in the atmosphere. Two ways that this can happen is by combustion which is manually burning something and by respiration which is what we all do, breathing. Nitrogen cycle is the most challenging because nitrogen can be absorbed by plants or be stored into the atmosphere. Also how it can be converted for plant use. In my opinion, the most important cycle is the water cycle. I think so because the hydrologic cycle is a closed cycle and it shows the importance of saving water and how if we use it all up without care, it would be very hard to save or get it back.
