Carbon Cycling Hydrosphere, Atmosphere and Geosphere

What is a biogeochemical cycle?

• The movement of matter through all four of the spheres.

• The movement of matter through the biosphere and geosphere only.

• The movement of matter through the atmosphere and hydrosphere only.

• A cycle where carbon starts in plants and comes back to plants. (Only carbon)
