Earth Interactions

The video tutorial explains the four main components of Earth: the biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere. It describes how these spheres interact with each other, using examples like the Pacific Coast and the Sierra Mountains. The tutorial also encourages viewers to create models of these interactions in various environments, such as deserts, the Florida Everglades, and rainforests.

Which sphere of Earth includes all living organisms?

• Geosphere

• Hydrosphere

• Atmosphere

• Biosphere

What is the primary component of the hydrosphere?

• Air

• Rocks

• Water

• Soil

How do the hydrosphere and geosphere interact along the Pacific Coast?

• By growing large trees

• By moving sand and soil to form cliffs

• By creating rainforests

• By forming clouds

What happens when moisture-rich clouds from the Pacific Ocean meet the Sierra Mountains?

• They create new rivers

• They drop moisture as rain and snow

• They cause earthquakes

• They form deserts

Which environment is NOT suggested for modeling in the video?

• Florida Everglades

• Desert in the American Southwest

• Arctic Tundra

• Rainforest
