The Phosphorus Cycle

The Phosphorus Cycle in the Saltwater Biome

Verania Del Risco
Entry #10

What i learned today was that the Phosphorus Cycle plays an important role in the Saltwater Biome! Waves crash onto rocks and phosphorus is released and then carried into the ocean. The animals and plants all need phosphorus because it makes up their genetic information. Some of the phosphorus is stored for long periods of time. Then the stored phosphorus is returned to the soil because of the waves, weathering, etc.
