Solution

The correct option is B Sedimentary
Nutrient cycles basically are of following two types:
1. Gaseous cycles: These have their nutrient reserves in the atmosphere and oceans, for examples nitrogen cycle and carbon cycle.
2. Sedimentary cycles: These have their nutrient reserves in the soil, rocks and minerals; where they are released from the rock and deposited in the sea. Example, phosphorus cycle
