Biogeochem <strong>Cycles</strong> and Life • Of the 103 known elements only 24 are required for life. – Macronutrients- required in large amounts • Big six = C, H, N, O, P, S – Micronutrients- required either in small/ moderate amounts • For life to persist, elements must be available at the right time, right amount, and right concentrations relative to one another.
Biogeochem <strong>Cycles</strong> and Life • Limiting factor - For life to persist elements must be available at right time, right amount, and right concentrations relative to one another. When this does not happen, the chemical in shortest supply may become a limiting factor.
