The process that is vital in the recycling of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus is decomposition.
During decomposition, organic matter from dead organisms is broken down. This break down yields simpler and smaller substances from the more complex ones that were present in the organism.
Carbon is released from the carbohydrates and fats that were present in the organism. Nitrogen is released from the proteins that were present and phosphorus is released from the nucleic acids.

Genotype. A human being's genome is made up of approximately 3 billion base pairs which make up about 2000 genes. Individuals, however, differ slightly in the sequence of their DNA in some regions. This unique genome identity is the indivudual genotype. Sequence of DNA in a genome can nowadays be determined through sequencing using Next Generation Sequencing machines
