The interactions between Earth's four spheres—geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere—are complex and interdependent. Changes in one sphere often create feedback that influences other spheres.

Q6. What issues does waste from humans cause?

Solid waste - Any discarded solid material. Problems aren’t only caused by the amount of solid waste but also by the type of solid waste

Q4 . Why is carbon important?

Deep ocean Fosil pool Reactive sediments Soil Surface ocean Atmosphere Plant biomass are the carbon reservoirs. Grazing land, Built up land Fishing grounds, Forest products, Crop land, Carbon Footprint are some of the things that need carbon
Describe carbon sources and sinks. Carbon sources is where the carbon is coming from. Sink is where it goes. Explain using evidence the impact CO2 has on our environment. CO2’s impact is that we need it to live because to helps the trees grow.

Q2. . How did life and Earth systems coevolve?

Seafloor Spreading - where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity then gradually moves away from the ridge. Tectonic plates grind past each other and produce faults. A trench or valley is formed at the edge of the plates.Magma is formed from this crust and comes up through volcanoes
Describe ingredients and goldilocks conditions. Ingredients- a component part or element of something Goldilocks conditions- not being extreme or not varying drastically between extremes, especially between hot and cold Use feedback to help explain the relationship between life and iand. + of life is we need land to live. - is we are killing our planet

Q5 What is the impact of developing and using energy resources on Earth’s living and non-living systems?

-3 metallic and nonmetallic properties of ores: Metallic- conduct electricity, shiny, opaque Nonmetallic- insulators, dull, translucent -Different types of mining: Subsurface mining Surface mining Solution mining -5 factors that influence the value of coal: Taxes, seasonal, location, crude oil, and supply and demand -Pros and cons of a pipeline: Pros- Inexpensive to operate No air pollutants Last much longer than fossil fuel plants Cons- Expensive to build Changes a river’s flow Displaces life where reservoir is Dead plants in water can release GHGs -Human activity is affecting the environment because we are putting pollutants in the air and using a lot of resources
Reason the pros and cons of different kinds of mining with evidence. Pros- easy way of getting things, infrastructure that improve the quality of our lives Cons-damage mining operations cause to the environment Compare and contrast renewable and nonrenewable resources. Renewable is plastic, straws,plastic bags. Nonrenewable is gas, coal, oil. Discuss how human activity is impacting the environment.

Q3. How does water affect Earth’s surface processes?

Solid, liquid, and gas are the three forms. Gas is A state of matter that has no fixed shape. Solid is Definite shape and volume. Liquid is Constantly moving. 32 degrees is when it freezes, and it boils at 212. 220 Celsius, 100 cs. Water freezes, melts into water and evaporation into the sky
Explain the movement of material by water. Argue how important soil is to our environment. Soil is important because you need it to grow and we need food to survive

Q1 . How do some changes create feedback that affect other Earth systems?

Geosphere- Core, mantle, crust, mountains, rocks, sand, dust, and ocean floors Hydrosphere- oceans, rivers, creeks, snow, rain, ice caps, groundwater, and glaciers Atmosphere- oxygen, nitrogen, water vapor, ozone, and wind Biosphere- plants, humans, insects, and animals information about reactions to a product, a person's performance of a task, etc. which is used as a basis for improvement
Explain how Earth’s 4 spheres interact. You in the atmosphere because water is a living thing. rocks and metals are living things. all living things live in the atmosphere. Create examples of positive and negative feedback. + the enhancement or amplification of an effect by its own influence on the process that gives rise to it. -the diminution or counteraction of an effect by its own influence on the process giving rise to it, as when a high level of a particular hormone in the blood may inhibit further secretion of that hormone, or where the result of a certain action may inhibit further performance of that action
