I'll start! (super late for this lol)

These are all characteristics of what biome?
Covers 1/5th of Earth's surface
Strong abundance of sunlight
Tendency for large water loss

"A lot of people have quotes in their signature. Maybe I should have a quote in my signature." -Froggie
Green Gen + (Chem Lab * Forensics) + log(Enviro Chem)+ (Bridge-Boomilever) = Forestry

This biome is a desert.

Which biogeochemical cycle does not have a major atmospheric step?

Desert is correct!

My answer:Water cycle, only parts in the atmosphere are runoff. Next!

1. What type of graph is an R-selected species represented by? (Give the name and the equation.)
2. List two examples of R-selected species.
3a. Density dependent or independent?
3b. Population stable or unstable?
3c. Long or short lived?
3d. Relative size of species?
3e. Care for offspring?
3f. Is it limited by carrying capacity?

Hmmm... try again. Hint: This element in the cycle does not combine well with other elements.
The water cycle is not correct, because the water droplets are in the atmosphere when they form clouds. This is a major step.

Oh yeah haha I feel like I forgot what atmospheric meant for a second.

Then I suppose it would be Phosphorus, only in water and rock

Sorry, I realized that I probably should've shown my question after you saying it was correct. It got hidden, so here it is:

1. What type of graph is an R-selected species represented by? (Give the name and the equation.)
2. List two examples of R-selected species.
3a. Density dependent or independent?
3b. Population stable or unstable?
3c. Long or short lived?
3d. Relative size of species?
3e. Care for offspring?
3f. Is it limited by carrying capacity?
