Sample resource cycles questions
Choose the process that moves matter in each described step of a cycle. These examples come from the Easy setting; every generated worksheet draws a fresh set.
- On a hot, dry, windy day a shallow puddle disappears, and no rain fell. Which process removed the water?
photosynthesis · evaporation
- Burning coal at a power plant releases carbon that had been stored underground for millions of years. Which process released it?
combustion · cellular respiration
- Liquid water in a warm pond changes to water vapor and enters the air. Which process is this?
evaporation · combustion
- An animal breaks down sugar for energy and releases carbon dioxide into the air. Which process returned that carbon to the air?
precipitation · cellular respiration
Check the sample answers
- evaporation
Warm, dry, moving air speeds the change from liquid water to vapor. - combustion
Combustion of a fuel releases its stored carbon as carbon dioxide. - evaporation
Evaporation changes liquid water into water vapor. - cellular respiration
Cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide as one of its products.
Practice focus
Matter cycles between living things and the air, water, soil, and rock around them. The same atoms are used again and again as water and carbon move through these processes.

Model cycling of matter through living and nonliving parts of ecosystems. These Grade 6 science worksheets stay with that single skill: every question is answerable from the printed page, and the answer sheet explains why each answer is correct.
How to use the worksheets
- Choose a difficulty, then read the printed directions before answering the first question.
- Complete the questions on paper, marking one answer for each item.
- Compare the result with the answer sheet and read the short explanation together.
How this practice can help students
Matter cycles between living things and the air, water, soil, and rock around them. The same atoms are used again and again as water and carbon move through these processes. Generating the page again keeps the same learning goal while changing the questions, so a learner can revisit the skill without repeating the same items.
Review and next steps
Ask the learner to say what made one answer better than the others. Grade placement is a planning guide for choosing practice. The registry records standard-code mappings as unreviewed, so these pages are not a claim of alignment with a national standard.
