Let's evaluate each choice. For the first choice, this is correct. Hydrosphere consist of all the water's in the Earth's surface. It interacts with the atmosphere through reaeration, so that water cycle continues on. The second option is correct, this is known as the greenhouse effect. The third option is incorrect, because the opposite is true, which makes the fourth option correct. The fifth option is incorrect because the atmosphere has nothing to do with the Earth's crust. So, the answers are: A, B, and D.
