The image is a diagram of which sphere?
atmosphere
geosphere
hydrosphere
biosphere
What type of boundary is in the image?
transform
divergent
convergent

Is the following an example of a positive or negative feedback loop?
As global temperature increases, ice sheets begin to melt. As ice sheets melt, more evaporation occurs and cloudiness in the atmosphere increases. With more clouds present, more solar radiation is reflected and global temperatures cool.
positive feedback loop
negative feedback loop

decomposer
producer
consumer

How does salt water from the ocean end up as fresh water in precipitation?
Runoff leaves salt in the soil
Precipitation leaves salt in the clouds
Evaporation leaves salt in the ocean
Condensation leaves salt in the water vapor
Transpiration is the
process by which grass grows in the summer months
process by which plants absorb water through their roots and then release it through the pores on their leaves
process by which water evaporates into the air through animals
process by which salt water is purified
