Understanding Interactions Among Earth's Systems
Explore the interconnectedness of Earth's systems including the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. Learn how these systems interact and affect each other, from the rocks and soil of the geosphere to the living organisms in the biosphere, and the impacts of events like acid rain on the entire Earth system.

Topic 3: Essential Question: How can you model interactions among Earth s systems? Earth s Systems
Lesson 3.1 Geosphere and Biosphere Objective: Describe what makes up the geosphere and the biosphere.
Lesson 3.1 Vocabulary biosphere Make index cards with vocabulary word, definition and a picture for each word. geosphere lithosphere system
biosphere An Earth system that includes all living things, including humans.
geosphere An Earth system that includes rocks, soil and sediment.
lithosphere A part of the geosphere that contains Earth s crust and outer, rigid part of the mantle.
system A group of parts that work together to complete a task.
Lesson 3.1 Checkpoint Prep What does each sphere contain? atmosphere hydrosphere biosphere geosphere
Lesson 3.1 Checkpoint Prep Give an example of the biosphere interacting with the geosphere. Lithosphere includes crust and upper mantle.
Lesson 3.1 Checkpoint Prep Acid Rain can affect all of Earth s spheres. can harm organisms that drink the polluted water. strips nutrients from the soil. changes the type of gases in the atmosphere.
Lesson 3.2 Hydrosphere and Atmosphere Objective: Describe what makes up the atmosphere and the hydrosphere.
Lesson 3.2 Vocabulary atmosphere Make index cards with vocabulary word, definition and a picture for each word. hydrosphere distinguish
Lesson 3.2 Checkpoint Prep What does each sphere contain? atmosphere hydrosphere biosphere geosphere
Lesson 3.2 Checkpoint Prep Give an example of the atmosphere interacting with the hydrosphere. Give an example of the atmosphere interacting with the biosphere. Give an example of the biosphere interacting with the geosphere.
Lesson 3.2 Checkpoint Prep Give examples of natural disasters where the atmosphere interacts with the hydrosphere. What affects the kind of precipitation that will fall? What does the atmosphere do to keep earth warm?
