Question

multiple-choice question the biogeochemical cycles explain how nutrients move through... the biosphere only the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere only both the living and nonliving components of an ecosystem

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Biogeochemical cycles involve the movement of nutrients between living (biotic) and non - living (abiotic) parts of an ecosystem. The biosphere (living), atmosphere (air), hydrosphere (water), and lithosphere (land) are all interconnected in these cycles. For example, in the carbon cycle, plants (living) take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere (non - living), convert it to organic matter through photosynthesis, and when they decompose or are respired by animals, carbon is released back to the atmosphere.

Answer:

C. both the living and nonliving components of an ecosystem
