The correct Answer is:
To solve the question about which pairs have the correct combination of nutrient cycles and their corresponding elements, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Nutrient Cycles**: - There are two main types of nutrient cycles: - **Gaseous Nutrient Cycles**: These involve the exchange of nutrients between the atmosphere and living organisms. - **Sedimentary Nutrient Cycles**: These involve the exchange of nutrients from the Earth's crust (lithosphere) to living organisms. 2. **Identify Elements Associated with Each Cycle**: - **Gaseous Nutrient Cycles**: - Common examples include **Carbon** and **Nitrogen**. - **Sedimentary Nutrient Cycles**: - Common examples include **Sulfur** and **Phosphorus**. 3. **Match Elements with Their Correct Cycle**: - For **Gaseous Nutrient Cycles**: - Carbon → Gaseous Cycle - Nitrogen → Gaseous Cycle - For **Sedimentary Nutrient Cycles**: - Sulfur → Sedimentary Cycle - Phosphorus → Sedimentary Cycle 4. **Determine the Correct Combinations**: - Based on the above identification: - Gaseous Nutrient Cycle: Carbon and Nitrogen (Correct) - Sedimentary Nutrient Cycle: Sulfur and Phosphorus (Correct) 5. **Conclusion**: - Both pairs have the correct combinations. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is the second option. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is the second option, where both pairs have the correct combination: - Gaseous Nutrient Cycle: Carbon and Nitrogen - Sedimentary Nutrient Cycle: Sulfur and Phosphorus ---
