  1. By- Kooper Earth’s Spheres

  2. Lithosphere • The lithosphere is the crust and upper mantle of the earth. • The Pangaea theory was that all the continents were all connected then they broke apart. • Plate tectonics is earths surface is broken into plates that slide over magma. • Volcanism is when magma reaches the surface. • Continental drift is the movement of continents slowly. • The Lithosphere is the ground.

  3. Hydrosphere • The Hydrosphere is all the water on Earth. • The water cycle is when the water evaporates and goes to the sky and falls back to Earth as rain. • Precipitation is when rain, snow, and hail fall to the ground. • An aquifer is a under ground water way. • Water exists in oceans, rivers, and clouds. • 2/3 of the Earth is made of water.

  4. Atmosphere • The atmosphere is a layer of gas which surrounds a planet. • The layers of the atmosphere are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. • The difference between height and pressure is height, height is the altitude and pressure is how much force is put on it. • The ozone layer is a layer of gas that shields the Earth form the sun’s harmful rays. • It is manly oxygen. • Earths gravity holds the atmosphere in place.

  5. Biosphere • The biosphere is all life. • Food chain is the order in which living things eat and get eaten. • An ecosystem is a group of living that interact with each other and the tings around them. • Components are different things working together. • Every living thing depends on the biosphere for food. • The biosphere depends on every other sphere for life.

  6. How the spheres interact • The lithosphere provides a place for the rest of the spheres • The atmosphere provides the biosphere with oxygen. • The biosphere depends on all the other spheres. • The biosphere interacts with all the other spheres because all living animals change the oxygen to carbon dioxide. • Plants breathe in carbon dioxide and create oxygen for the biosphere and the atmosphere. • The spheres are closely connected and affect each other.
