Claim: Matter (atoms) cycles through living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. Evidence:
  1. A student feeds a rabbit lettuce grown in air containing a harmless carbon "label," and later detects that labeled carbon in the rabbit's body tissues.
  2. Later, a hawk eats the rabbit, and labeled carbon is detected in the hawk's tissues.
  3. A sensor shows CO2_2 increases in a jar containing only a snail over time.
  4. Predators usually have sharper teeth than herbivores.
