Question

Take a walk outside and make observations. Describe one of each type of interaction between spheres that you observe. An example of the biosphere interacting with the geosphere is an animal burrow.

Answer 1

1. interaction between hydrosphere and atmosphere.

Cloud is formed from water vapors evaporated by lake water (hydrosphere) in atmosphere

2. interaction between atmosphere and geosphere.

The atmosphere arranges the geosphere with the energy required for the breaking of rocks and different types of erosion.

3. interaction between hydrosphere and geosphere.

For electricity purposes, water in the lake (hydrosphere) flows and stored into the cliff walls behind the dam, forming groundwater after moving through the turbine (geosphere).

4. interaction between the atmosphere and the biosphere.

In the nitrogen cycle, atmospheric nitrogen is fixed to compounds of nitrogen in plants with help of nitrogen fixing microbes (biosphere).
