Since we have planned our Brussel sprouts they have matured and developed tremendously. After we first planned them they had just started sprouting during break. But currently they have full, lush, green leaves and if you look closely you can see baby flower buds waiting to bloom where the Brussel Sprouts will develop.
Our Brussel sprouts participate in the water cycle through the process of transpiration and water evaporation. When the plant is watered either from rain or by hand, the roots of the plants absorb the water and carry it up the xylem and phloem. This water is carried to small pores in the underside of our plants leaves. When this water under the leaves evaporates it is released into the biosphere and transpires into the clouds and collects there through the process of condensation, waiting to become precipitation and repeat the process.
The process of the carbon cycle for a plant is the absorption of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which is used for photosynthesis, and then released back into the atmosphere. Our plant is a art of the carbon cycle because it absorbs carbon dioxide through the stomata on the underside of the plants leaves. Which is then used in the process of photosynthesis which makes sugars, energy, and oxygen molecules for the help to help it grow. The plant then breaks down the carbon dioxide into organic carbon in the pedosphere, (or the soil) which then respires into the biosphere from the soil.
Our plants participate in the movement of Nitrogen in the biosphere because it is taken into the soil by rain and is absorbed by the Brussel sprout's roots. Nitrogen is very important in the creation of plant DNA and proteins, and is also an essential component for chlorophyll which is stored in our plants leaves giving them a green color. Chlorophyll is used in the process of photosynthesis and is essential to the growth of our plant.
