Groundwater vs Surface Water
• Groundwater: water that fills the cracks and spaces in underground soil and rock layers such as aquifers. More freshwater is found here than on the surface.
• Surface Water: water found on the surface such as rivers, lakes, oceans.
• Watershed: the land area that supplies water to a river system
How do these to systems feed into each other?

Nitrogen Cycle
• Nitrogen is necessary for living things because it becomes part of proteins, and part of the material responsible for reproduction and inheritance. Without nitrogen in proteins or in DNA and RNA, no living thing would exist on the Earth.

Nitrogen Cycle
Nitrogen is an element. It is found in living things like plants and animals. It is also an important part of non-living things like the air above and the dirt below.
![Page 6: TAKS 8 th Grade Science Review Objective 5 Earth and Space Systems.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2e5503460f94b1e563/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Atoms of Nitrogen
Nitrogen
Air
Water Soil
Atoms of nitrogen don't just stay in one place. They move slowly between living things, dead things, the air, soil and water. These movements are called the nitrogen cycle.

Nitrogen in the Atmosphere
Most of the nitrogen on Earth is in the atmosphere. Approximately 80% of the molecules in Earth's atmosphere are made of two nitrogen atoms bonded together (N2).

However the nitrogen in the atmosphere is not in a form that plants and animals can use.

The molecules of nitrogen in the atmosphere can become usable for living things when they are broken apart during lightning strikes or fires, or by certain types of bacteria.

Plants and Nitrogen
Most plants get the nitrogen they need to grow from the soils or water in which they live.
![Page 11: TAKS 8 th Grade Science Review Objective 5 Earth and Space Systems.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2e5503460f94b1e563/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Animals and Nitrogen
Animals get the nitrogen they need by eating plants or other animals that contain nitrogen.
![Page 12: TAKS 8 th Grade Science Review Objective 5 Earth and Space Systems.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2e5503460f94b1e563/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Recycling Nitrogen
When organisms die, their bodies decompose bringing the nitrogen into soil on land or into ocean water. Bacteria alter the nitrogen into a form that plants are able to use.

People Affect the Nitrogen Cycle
Actions of humans are causing changes to the nitrogen cycle and the amount of nitrogen that is stored in the land, water, air, and organisms.
![Page 14: TAKS 8 th Grade Science Review Objective 5 Earth and Space Systems.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2e5503460f94b1e563/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Farming and Nitrogen
Use of nitrogen-rich fertilizers can add too much nitrogen in nearby waterways as the fertilizer washes into streams and ponds.
![Page 15: TAKS 8 th Grade Science Review Objective 5 Earth and Space Systems.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2e5503460f94b1e563/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Farming and Nitrogen
Waste associated with livestock also adds large amounts of nitrogen into soil and water. The increased nitrate levels cause plants to grow rapidly until they use up the supply and die.
![Page 16: TAKS 8 th Grade Science Review Objective 5 Earth and Space Systems.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2e5503460f94b1e563/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Farming and Nitrogen
The number of plant-eating animals will increase when the plant supply increases and then the animals are left without any food when the plants die.

Carbon Cycle
Photosynthesis and Respiration are big contributors to the Carbon Cycle!

Seasons and Length of DaySeasons:
The biggest reason is the tilt of the Earth’s axis.
Solstices: “Sun Standing Still”
The Longest Day and the Shortest Day of the Year
Equinox: “Equal Night”
Equal amount of light and dark

Weathering
• Weathering - process that breaks down rocks and other substances at the Earth’s surface– Chemical – breaks down rocks through chemical
changes such as water, O2, CO2, living organisms– Physical – breaks down rocks through freezing and
thawing, release of pressure, growth of plants, actions of animals
• Erosion – fragments of soil and rock are broken off and carried away
• Deposition – soil and rock are dropped in a new location
• Sediment – particles of soil and rock
