Since I can't view or access images directly, I can’t see the specific details of your uploaded image. However, based on your description and the text you've provided, it appears to be a worksheet about
nutrient cycles, specifically focusing on
the water cycle.
Let me help you solve the problems listed in the worksheet using general knowledge of the water cycle and nutrient cycling:
---
Model 1 – The Water Cycle
The diagram likely shows the movement of water through different parts of the environment: oceans, lakes, rivers, plants, atmosphere, and land.
####
Question 1: Model 1 illustrates how water recycles what natural resource?
✔ Answer: Water
Explanation: The water cycle (also known as the hydrologic cycle) shows how water continuously moves between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere. It recycles
water, a vital natural resource essential for life.

Question 2: Model 1 illustrates four major areas of water storage on Earth. Complete the list of these storage areas below.
From the diagram, you should identify where water is stored. Typical storage areas in the water cycle are:
- Atmosphere
- Surface water (e.g., lakes, rivers, oceans)
- Groundwater (underground water)
- Living organisms (plants, animals, etc.)
But since the question asks for
four major areas, and one is already given as “atmosphere,” we need to fill in the others.
✔ Answer:
- Atmosphere
- Surface water
- Groundwater
- Ice (glaciers and ice caps)
Note: If the diagram includes "living organisms" or "soil moisture," those might also be acceptable depending on context, but the most common four are:
1. Oceans (part of surface water)
2. Glaciers and ice caps
3. Groundwater
4. Atmosphere
So, if the blank is asking for three more after “atmosphere,” the answer would be:
>
Surface water,
groundwater, and
ice (or glaciers)

Question 3: Where is ground water stored?
✔ Answer: In the soil and rock layers beneath the Earth's surface, such as in aquifers.
Explanation: Groundwater is water that has soaked into the ground and is stored in porous rocks, sand, and gravel. These underground reservoirs are called
aquifers. Groundwater can be accessed via wells and springs.

Summary of Answers:
1.
Water
2.
Surface water,
groundwater, and
ice (or glaciers)
3.
In soil and rock layers beneath the Earth’s surface (in aquifers)

If you can describe the image further (e.g., labels on the diagram), I can give even more precise answers!
