#1 The model shows which sphere?
Biosphere
#9 How do the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere shown in the picture contribute to the tree’s growth?
The tree uses oxygen for energy.
atmosphere
#9 How do the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere shown in the picture contribute to the tree’s growth?
The soil provides a place for the tree to lay down roots.
geosphere
What does the vocabulary word "distinguish" mean?
to clearly show the difference between two objects
The biosphere includes most living things or all living things?
All living things
#7 Taylor's model shows (the greenhouse effect / movement of water / acid rain).
the greenhouse effect
#9 How do the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere shown in the picture contribute to the tree’s growth?
The tree draws water through its roots.
hydrosphere
BONUS
:)
Minerals or bacteria?
bacteria
#6 The pictures show the effects of acid rain.
Identify two of Earth’s spheres that are affected by acid rain in these pictures.
biosphere and geosphere
The lithosphere is made up of the (crust and upper mantle / crust and core / lower mantle).
crust and upper mantle
What type of interaction is taking place?
river
hydrosphere with geosphere
#2 Select the three natural disasters caused by interaction with the hydrosphere.
mudslide, blizzard, hurricane, earthquake
#5 Earth’s spheres are affected by the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal. However, there are alternative sources of energy available, as shown in the pictures.
From which spheres are these alternative energy sources derived?
hydrosphere and atmosphere
#8 Luis created a model of the cross-section of Earth.
In Luis's model, the rocky outer portion of Earth is referred to as the (geosphere / lithosphere / hydrosphere).
lithosphere
What type of interaction is taking place?
volcano
geosphere with atmosphere
When the hydrosphere and the (atmosphere / geosphere / lithosphere) interact, it can result in a tropical storm.
atmosphere
