| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what is the Geosphere | The Geosphere The geosphere includes the rocks and minerals on Earth – from the molten rock and heavy metals in the deep interior of the planet to the sand on beaches and peaks of mountains. |
| what is the Biosphere | The biosphere includes all life on our planet. It is not only all the things that are living, but also the remains of organisms that have died and not yet decomposed. It also includes the regions of the other parts of the Earth system (atmospheres) |
| what is the Atmosphere | The atmosphere is a mixture of gases that surrounds the Earth. It helps make life possible by providing us with air to breathe, shielding us from harmful ultraviolet (UV). |
| what is the Hydrosphere | All of the water on Earth, including freshwater and the oceans, makes up the hydrosphere. Most of this water, a whopping 97%, is found in Earth’s oceans. Oceans and seas cover more than 70% of Earth’s surface, giving our planet its distinctive blue color. |
| what is the Carbon Cycle | What is the carbon cycle? Carbon is the chemical backbone of all life on Earth. All of the carbon we currently have on Earth is the same amount we have always had. When new life is formed, carbon forms key molecules like protein and DNA. |
| what is the water Cycle | simple circular cycle of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Although this can be a useful model, the reality is much more complicated. The paths and influences of water through Earth’s ecosystems are extremely complex |
| what is Photosynthesis | Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that, through cellular respiration, can later be released to fuel the organism's activities. |
| what is Synthesis reaction | As a topic of chemistry, chemical synthesis is the artificial execution of chemical reactions to obtain one or several products. This occurs by physical and chemical manipulations usually involving one or more reactions. In modern laboratory uses. |
