Earth Spheres 1
This sphere that controls all the earth's water - gas, liquid or solid.
What is the Hydrosphere?
Mt. Everest and a desert are parts of this Sphere.
What is the Geosphere?
The layer of the Earth on which humans live.
What is the crust?
The coolest layer of Earth's layers
What is the crust?
This is the cycle by which water is conserved on Earth
What is the water cycle?
This sphere that controls all the Earth's mass in the form of rocks, soil, and metals.
What is the Geosphere?
a muddy puddle after a rain shower shows the interaction of these 2 Earth spheres
What is the Geosphere and Atmosphere?
As you go down the layers, temperature, pressure and density...
What is increase?
This sphere is a mixture of gasses that surround earth
What is the atmosphere?
Waves crashing on a beach is an example of these two systems interacting
What are the hydrospheres and geospheres?
This Earth sphere that controls the air we breathe, the wind and the weather.
What is the Atmosphere?
Snow falling on the grass represents the interactions of these Earth Spheres
What is hydrosphere and biosphere?
The four layers of our Earth.
What is the Crust, Mantle, Outer Core, and Inner Core?
What is outer and inner core
Clouds are part of these two systems
What are the atmosphere and the hydrosphere?
The Earth's sphere that controls all living things.
What is the Biosphere?
The Earth Spheres that are affected by a volcano's eruption
What is the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere?
The largest layer of the Earth located between the core and the crust
What is the mantle?
The asthenosphere is hotter than the inner core- true or false
What is false?
This is when clouds rain, snow, or hail from the atmosphere
What is precipitation?
The four spheres of the Earth.
What are the:
Hydrosphere, Biosphere , Geosphere and Atmosphere?
The earth's systems that are affected when a portion of a cliff breaks off and falls into the ocean
What is the biosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere?
This layer is composed of solid metal
What is the inner core?
The 2 factors that are greater at the Earth's core than it's crust or surface
What is density and pressure?
This happens when water vapor turns into liquid water (often happens in clouds, but also can happen on the outside of your cold cup!)
What is "condensation"?
