The water cycle The oxygen cycle The nitrogen cycle The carbon cycle 5 / 20 Deforestation causes an increase in ____________ Oxygen Carbon dioxide Increased habitats Nitrogen 6 / 20 What do plants do during the oxygen cycle? They make carbon dioxide Plants are not part of the oxygen cycle. They make glucose They make oxygen 7 / 20 What is the process of changing liquid water into water vapor called? Condensation Melting Precipitation Evaporation 8 / 20 It is the process by which plants release water through the pores in their leaves. Precipitation Photosynthesis Transpiration Condensation 9 / 20 How are the plants part of the carbon cycle? Plants are only part of the oxygen cycle. Plants use carbon during nitrogen fixation. Plants are not part of the carbon cycle. Plants use carbon during photosynthesis. 10 / 20 Nitrogen goes through the process of ________ to become plant use. Denitrification Fixation Transpiration Transformation 11 / 20 _________ provides most of the oxygen on earth. Nitrogen Fixation Photosynthesis Cellular Respiration Decomposition 12 / 20 How are animals part of the oxygen cycle? Animals use oxygen during cellular respiration. Only humans are part of the oxygen cycle. Animals use oxygen during photosynthesis. Only plants are part of the oxygen cycle. 13 / 20 What does NOT produce carbon dioxide? Photosynthesis Burning Fossil Fuels Animal respiration Plants decaying 14 / 20 Precipitation occurs because the droplets are too heavy for the air to hold the droplets evaporate in the air the droplets are too light for the air to hold 15 / 20 When water vapor is cooled and forms droplets of liquid water Condensation Runoff Evaporation Transpiration 16 / 20 Which statement is true about the carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle? animals breathe in carbon dioxide and release oxygen which is used by plants animals breathe in oxygen and release carbon dioxide which is used by plants animals breathe in nitrogen and release oxygen which is used by plants animals breathe in nitrogen and release carbon dioxide which is used by plants 17 / 20 Animals use oxygen for _____________. breathing transpiration making glucose creating food 18 / 20 Nitrogen makes up _____% of our atmosphere. 78% 50% 21% 93% 19 / 20 Carbon is released back into the atmosphere through _______ Nitrogen cycle Decomposition Photosynthesis Cell Respiration 20 / 20 Oxygen makes up _____% of our atmosphere. 93% 78% 50% 21% Your score is 0% Restart quiz Go to the Quizzes Page
