As vapor forms during evaporation processes, it rises into the air where cooler temperatures then cause it to condense into liquid droplets and ice crystals that make up our clouds. This is consensation.]]> 2022-01-13 16:08:40 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1990698534 Precipitation s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1991334346 The oxygen atom is in the atmosphere as part of water droplets or ice crystals the form clouds. Air currents move clouds around the globe, and cloud particles collide, grow, and fall out of the sky as liquid or solid precipitation. CO2 gas dissolves in rainwater, producing weak carbonic acid (H2CO3), which contributes to weathering of rocks.]]> 2022-01-13 22:42:55 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1991334346 Evaporation s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1991347695 The oxygen atom is stored in water (H2O) as a liquid, and is released to the atmosphere as a gas known as water vapor through the process of evaporation. Evaporation is constantly occurring from oceans, lakes, and rivers. This type of evaporation is responsible for 90% of the water vapor found in the atmosphere.]]> 2022-01-13 23:00:50 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1991347695 Infiltration s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1991369185 The oxygen atom is a part of the H2O that falls in the form of liquid or frozen precipitation and seeps into the soil in a process known as infiltration. Some of this liquid water will be taken up by plants and some will percolate deep into ground layers to become a part of the groundwater system. Humans use groundwater for drinking water.]]> 2022-01-13 23:33:41 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1991369185 Surface Runoff s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992496066 The oxygen atom is a part of the H2O in the form of a liquid or frozen precipitation and flows over the Earth's surface. This liquid water picks up nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphates, from the soil as it travels to oceans, lakes, and rivers through a process called surface runoff]]> 2022-01-14 15:16:01 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992496066 Deposition s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992511135 The oxygen atom is in living organisms (e.g., C6H12O6) as a form of accessible energy to fuel cellular reactions and for structural support inside cells. When organisms die, their bodies decay, releasing carbon into the ground in a process called deposition. After millions of years, large accumulations of organic material can become fossil fuels.]]> 2022-01-14 15:23:49 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992511135 Transpiration s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992516930 The oxygen atom is present in plants as water (H2O) in the form of a liquid. Plants also release water into the atmosphere during the process of transpiration, which is evaporation of water primarily from plant leaves. This process is responsible for 10% of the water vapor found in the atmosphere.]]> 2022-01-14 15:26:37 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992516930 Cellular Respiration s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992523637 The oxygen atom is part of the CO2 and H2O compounds that are released by aerobic organisms (such as humans and other mammals) as products of making ATP (energy for cells) through the process of cellular respiration. These compounds are also vital to photosynthetic organisms as the reactants (starting compounds) in photosynthesis. ]]> 2022-01-14 15:30:05 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992523637 Photosynthesis s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992534681 The oxygen atom is a part of the C6H12O6 (glucose) compound and O2 molecules that are end-products of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is an important process for making energy in plant cells. These are also important reactants (starting compounds and molecules) in cellular respiration for aerobic organisms (humans and other mammals).]]> 2022-01-14 15:36:07 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992534681 Combustion s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992540428 The oxygen atom is a part of the compound CO2. CO2 is a gas released to the atmosphere through combustion of fossil fuels (such as coal, oil, and natural gas to produce electricity or power vehicles), the burning of forests (organic matter), and other natural and human-induced processes.]]> 2022-01-14 15:39:01 UTC https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992540428 Sedimentation s857481 https://padlet.com/s857481/4idbwgmqu6ka92ni/wish/1992550948 The oxygen atom is in CO2 gas, which cycles between the atmosphere and the ocean. Some dissolved CO2 is converted to calcium carbonate (CaCO3) as some aquatic organisms, such as corals and oysters, use this to make their shells. When these organisms die, carbon is added to 
ocean sediments, which, over time, form limestone in a process called sedimentation.

These organisms then break down the consumed material to serve as building blocks for macromolecules in a process known as 
assimilation.
