Sulfur Calcium General
100
Rock weathers away
What frequently happens in the lithosphere during both cycles?
100
Calcium enters the biosphere as dust; since it has no gas state, it does not remain in the atmosphere. As the form of dust, Calcium is moved by air and water throughout the biosphere.
How does Calcium enter the biosphere?
100
The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems. It can also be called the zone of life on Earth, a closed (apart from solar and cosmic radiation and heat from the interior of the Earth), and self-regulating system.

200
Neutralize them
What does calcium do to cell acids?

Sulfur Cycle:
Sulfur from the bodies of water and land rise up to sky in the form of Hydrogen Sulfide Gas, and later condenses in the sky and comes back down as precipitation
