The document discusses the four main spheres that make up the Earth system:
1) The geosphere is the solid Earth consisting of the core, mantle, and crust.
2) The biosphere is the zone where all life exists, including in oceans, on land, and in water.
3) The hydrosphere is the water part of the Earth that circulates among oceans, glaciers, and the atmosphere.
4) The atmosphere is the gaseous layer above the surface composed primarily of nitrogen and oxygen that supports life.
Matter and energy flow between these four subsystems, with the atmosphere providing heat and gases, the biosphere receiving gases, heat and water, and the hydros

smaller systems through which matter and energy are continuously cycled. Energy and matter flow through Earth's spheres. Four(4) Earth System Geosphere (Lithosphere) Biosphere Hydrosphere Atmosphere What exactly are the sphere and what’s in them Geosphere
The solid Earth, consisting
of the entire planet from the center of the core to the outer crust. It includes the core, mantle, and crust of the Earth. Biosphere
The zone of Earth where all
forms of life exist: in the sea, on land, and in water. It is sometimes called as the large ecosystem. This is the zone that life inhabits. Analyze Me Hydrosphere The water part of the Earth which circulates among oceans, continents, glaciers, and atmosphere. Oceans cover 71% of the Earth and contain 97.5% of its water. Atmosphere it is the gaseous layer above the Earth’s surface, primarily composed of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen. The atmosphere supports life because animals and oxygen, and plants need both carbon dioxide and oxygen. How does matter and energy flow across the four subsystem of the Earth? The Earth consists of four subsystems, across whose boundaries matter and energy flows, the atmosphere (air), biosphere (living things), hydrosphere (water), and geosphere (land). The atmosphere provides the geosphere with heat and energy needed for rock breakdown and erosion. The biosphere receives gases, heat, and sunlight (energy) from the atmosphere. It receives water from the hydrosphere and a living medium from the geosphere. THANK YOUUU
