Abstract

The geochemical effects of multiplication appear in the rhythm of terrestrial chemical processes, which create specific chemical compounds in each living film and concentration. Once chemical elements have entered into the cycles of living matter they remain there forever and never again emerge, except for a small portion that become detached in the form of vadose minerals. It is precisely this fraction that creates the chemistry of the ocean. The intensity of multiplication of organisms is thus reflected in the rate of formation of vadose deposits.
