The correct answer is B. Hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere interaction.

Step-by-step explanation

Colossal Cave is a cave system of approximately 5 km, formed by the flow of groundwater located in the United States. It is believed that it was used by indigenous communities. Currently, it does not contain water inside, without embryo the formations made by water are found. This complex cave system was discovered in 1879 by Soloman Lick who owned a property near the caves.

These caves are the result of the interaction of the hydrosphere (system that encompasses all the bodies of water on Earth), lithosphere (system referred to the earth's crust and its formations) and biosphere (system referred to all life forms existing in Earth) because they were initially formed from the underground water stream that interacted with the earth's crust forming these caves, which has subsequently been used by several animals such as bats to take refuge. So, the correct answer is B. Hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere interaction.
