This week our plants look bigger stronger, and a slight red hue to their stems has started to take shape representing the increase of maturity. Since being placed in the graden our plants have participated in a few cycles including the water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles.
Participation in the water cycle includes the intake and filtration of water. When water flows through our plants roots some is being kept by the plan while the rest is being in a sense screened of harmful bacteria and other un-wanteds. Because of our plants direct effects on the cycle, they are able to be the first to acquire some of the nutrients and helpful bacteria that make them grow.
Our plants also take part in the nitrogen cycle. Once nitrogen in the air enters the soil through bacteria, the bacteria will fix itself to the roots of our plant. This gives bacteria a home and our plants neutriants. The plant takes in nitrates which means if our plant is eaten the consumer will get some nitrogen also. Not only do our plants take part in the nitrogen and water cycles but the carbon cycle to.
The compost bin, smoke from chimneys, and animals in the garden give off CO2. on the other hand our plant gives off oxygen. To make oxygen, the plant must first take in CO2. When it takes in CO2 the earths air gets that much cleaner.
