COMPLETE QUESTION (hopefully the one you are referring to)

Each sentence describes an interaction between two of Earth’s spheres. Match each sentence with the spheres that are interacting.

geosphere and hydrosphere

hydrosphere and biosphere

biosphere and atmosphere

atmosphere and geosphere

------------------------------------------------------------------

Grady swims in the ocean.                

-------hydrosphere and biosphere

Lena takes a deep breath.                

-------biosphere and atmosphere

Water vapor condenses on a glass.  

-------geosphere and hydrosphere

Gusty winds weather sandstone in the desert.

-------atmosphere and geosphere

Explanation:

It helps to remember what is involved in each sphere first before you get to the answers:

Hydrosphere - with the word Hydro- this involves water.

Biosphere - the word Bio- means life, so we are dealing with living things.

Atmosphere - This involves anything that has to do with the air on Earth.

Geosphere - Geo means Earth, so we are talking about the solid Earth.

All these spheres interact with each other because the elements found on each sphere is crucial to maintaining life on Earth and it also molds Earth's shape.

Now taking the examples in your question:

1. Grady swims in the ocean

• Grady is a living thing, so he is part of the biosphere.
• Ocean is a body of water this makes it part of the hydrosphere.
• ANSWER: Hydrosphere and Biosphere are interacting.

2. Lena takes a deep breath.

• Lena is a living thing, which makes her part of the biosphere.
• Taking a deep breath, meaning breathing in air. The air she breathes in is part of the atmosphere.
• ANSWER: Biosphere and atmosphere interaction.

3. Water vapor condenses on a glass

• Water vapor is part of the hydrosphere, because it counts as part of the total of water on the Earth.
• Glass is considered as part of the geosphere in this case because it is on solid Earth.
• ANSWER: Geosphere and Hydrosphere are interacting.

4. Gusty winds weather sandstone in the desert.

• Winds are also part of the atmosphere because it involves the movement of air.
• Sandstone is a type of rock, which is part of the geosphere. Rocks make up our geosphere.
• ANSWER: Atmosphere and geosphere are interacting.
