A biogeochemical cycle refers to a cycling of chemical elements and substances move through the atmosphere, biosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere.
Explanation:
A biogeochemical cycle refers to a cycling of chemical elements and substances through the atmosphere, biosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere. This is how elements move around the planet.
They are cycles because there is no true start or end to them. Rather, they are continuous processes.
Below is an example of the oxygen cycle. We can see oxygen moves through living (plants and etc) and nonliving (air, water, etc) entities.
See this answer for examples of biogeochemical cycles.
