The correct answer would be biogeochemical cycles.

Biogeochemical cycle refers to the cyclic pathway by which a chemical substance or matter moves through the biosphere and abiotic components such as lithosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere.

Unlike energy, the matter is recycled in an ecosystem in order to maintain the quantity of matter in the ecosystem.

Examples may include carbon cycle, water cycle, nitrogen cycle et cetera.
