What is the atmosphere?

the atmosphere is all the gases on planet Earth.

the atmosphere is all the water on planet Earth.

the atmosphere is all the living organisms on planet Earth.

the atmosphere is all the land on planet Earth.

What is the geosphere?

the geosphere is solid Earth. (SOIL/ROCKS...etc)

the geosphere is all the water on planet Earth.

the geosphere is all the living organisms on planet Earth.

the geosphere is all the gases on planet Earth.

What is the biosphere?

the biosphere is all the living organisms on planet Earth.

the biosphere is all the water on planet Earth.

the biosphere is all the gases on planet Earth.

the biosphere is solid Earth. (SOIL/ROCKS...etc)

Why do materials in the geosphere move slowly?

because the geosphere is mainly solid

because the geosphere is mainly soft

because the geosphere contains tectonic plates that are stubborn

because the geosphere doesn't move that often so its hard when it does in continental drift.

What is an interaction that occurs in the water cycle?

the water (hydrosphere) from the clouds in the (atmosphere) condense and make the ocean (hydrosphere) build up

the water (hydrosphere) from the ocean evaporates eventually reaching the atmosphere

the water (hydrosphere) from clouds (atmosphere) precipitates making rivers, oceans, lakes (... etc) build up

How does carbon move from the geosphere to the atmosphere?

carbon from the geosphere enters the atmosphere as the trace gas carbon dioxide. This gas then is removed from the atmosphere in several ways

during photosynthesis, plants use sunlight, CO 2 , and water and make simple sugars. As a result, carbon leaves the atmosphere and enters the biosphere.

chemical weathering of rocks moves carbon from the atmosphere and geosphere to the hydrosphere as a dissolved material. Carbon also moves from the atmosphere to the hydrosphere when atmospheric CO 2 dissolves in water.

carbon leaves the hydrosphere and enters the geosphere when sedimentary rocks form on the ocean floor.

cellular respiration in organisms quickly returns CO 2 to the atmosphere. Even more carbon enters the atmosphere and the soil when organisms die and decay.

What happens to the TOTAL amount of carbon as it cycles through the Earth's systems?

carbon doesn't cycle through the Earth's systems

What is a natural activity that changes the amount of carbon dioxide in the ATMOSPHERE over time?

a volcanic eruption can release large amounts of CO 2 into the air.

when people burn fossil fuels to generate electricty and to power vehicles, CO 2 is released directly into the atmosphere

How does phosphorus move from the geosphere to the hydrosphere?

rocks exposed at Earth's surface release phosphates when they weather. The phosphates either remain in the soil or dissolve and enter the hydrosphere.

dissolved phosphate molecules more in liquid water through the water cycle. Eventually, the phosphates reach lake bottoms or the seafloor and are deposited along with sediment.

plants absorb phosphorus from either soil or water. Animals take in phosphorus when they eat plants or when they eat other animals that have eaten plants. These phosphates return to the soil as part of animal waste or as part of decomposing organisms
