Biological Processes that Generate Energy
1. Photosynthesis: The process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria capture and utilize light energy to convert inorganic matter from their external environment into organic matter used for growth and development.
2. Chemosynthesis: The biological production of organic matter from molecules of carbon and other nutrients, using the oxidation of inorganic molecules.

Formation of Accretionary Prisms & Orogenic Belts
Training Ranges: Formation of Accretionary Prism
K carries sediment. Oceanic lithosphere subducting, not the majority. The front of the continental shelf traps sediments, which are folded and fractured, thus causing the accretionary prism.
Magmatism and Metamorphism
The presence of water in the subducting lithosphere and heat generated by the friction between plates favor the partial fusion of rocks. The magmas originated climb, and those that remain inside contribute to the thickening of the continental
