Energy is not the only thingthat moves through the ecosystem.

Atoms are never destroyed . . . only transformed.

Take a deep breath.The atoms you just inhaled may have been inhaled by a dinosaur millions of years ago.

Producers absorb phosphate from soil and water

Phosphate moves through food web

Phosphate returns to soil and water from waste or decomposition

Sediments form “new land”to complete cycle

Phosphorus cycle is only biogeochemical
