Earth's Spheres
How Earth's Spheres Interact
Water Cycle
Weather & Atmosphere
W.E.R
100

This sphere includes rocks, soil, and sediments.

Geosphere

100

Tree roots breaking rocks apart shows interaction between these two spheres.

biosphere and geosphere

100

This powers the water cycle

The Sun

100

Scientists who study weather are called these.

Meteorologists

100

This process breaks down rocks.

Weathering

200

This sphere includes all living things

biosphere

200

Theres two spheres are the main sphere interacting in a pond

hydrosphere and biosphere

200

The water cycle shows this sphere interacting with this sphere

atmosphere and hydrosphere interacting

200

Weather happens in this lowest layer of the atmosphere.

Troposphere

200

This process moves broken rock and sediment.

Erosion

300

This sphere surrounds the entire planet, contains oxygen and nitrogen, and protects us from the sun’s harmful rays.

Atmosphere

300

Fish breathing oxygen dissolved in water demonstrates interaction between these two spheres.

Biosphere and hydrosphere

300

Water collecting in oceans, rivers, lakes, or underground is called this.

Collection

300

Low-pressure systems usually bring this type of weather

Clouds and rain

300

This process drops sediment in a new place.

Depositon

400

Only earth has this sphere

Biosphere

400

Interact means this

How one sphere affects another. 

400

Water falling from clouds as rain, snow, sleet, or hail is called this.

Precipitation

400

Air pressure is defined as this

how hard the air pushes down on us and the ground

400

We talked about these three types of weathering

biological, chemical, and freeze-thaw weathering

500

A group of parts working together is called this

System

500

Weather, erosion, and deposition show this sphere interacting with this sphere

geosphere and hydrosphere

500

Plants releasing water vapor is called this.

Transpiration

500

These are the five layers of the atmosphere

Troposphere

Strosphere

Mesosphere

Thermosphere

Exosphere

500

We talked about these 4 types of erosion

mudslides/landslides,
river erosion,
 coastal erosion
wind erosion
