Across
  1. 3. It is the process in which carbon travels from the atmosphere into organisms and the Earth and then back into the atmosphere.
  2. 5. energy obtained from the sun's radiation
  3. 7. The circulation or cyclic movement of nitrogen from the atmosphere to soil and back into the atmosphere.
  4. 12. combining of two small atoms such as Hydrogen or Helium to produce heavier atoms and energy
  5. 13. it is a process by which nitrogen (N2) in the Earth's atmosphere is converted into ammonia (NH3)
  6. 14. it is a form of renewable energy produced through machines that use wind as their power source.
  7. 17. it is the biological oxidation of ammonia or ammonium to nitrite followed by the oxidation of the nitrite to nitrate.
  8. 18. it is thermal energy generated and stored in the Earth
Down
  1. 1. transport of energy by ocean surface waves and capture of that energy
  2. 2. it is the conversion of nitrates (NO3) to inert nitrogen gas (N2).
  3. 4. energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human.
  4. 6. It is the is the converting of energy coming from running water to produce electricity
  5. 8. energy released by reactions within atomic nuclei, as in nuclear fission or fusion.
  6. 9. it is the process by which the organically bound nitrogen of microbial,plant and animal biomass is recycled after their death
  7. 10. is the energetic splitting of large atoms such as Uranium or Plutonium into two smaller atoms
  8. 11. is the formation of organic nitrogen compounds like amino acids from inorganic nitrogen compounds present in the environment
  9. 15. capacity to do work by mechanical,physical,chemical or electrical tasks or to cause a heat transfer between two
  10. 16. it is the any kind of energy that uses a biological organism (plant or animal) as its source.
