Two types of nutrient cycles in nature: (i) (a) Gaseous cycles (carbon and nitrogen cycle). (b) Sedimentary cycles (phosphorus and sulphur cycle). (ii) (a) Reservoir for gaseous cycle is atmosphere. (b) Reservoir for sedimentary cycle is earth’s crust.
Function of Reservoir It meets the deficit which occurs due to the imbalance in the state of influx and efflux of nutrients
