Question

5 characteristics each of the four major domain environment

Answer 1

The four major domains of the Earth are: lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and biosphere.

____________________

The lithosphere:

is the solid shell of the planet Earth. That means the crust, plus the part of the upper mantle that behaves elastically on long time scales.

________________

hydrosphere ;

_______________

A hydrosphere is the total amount of water on a planet.

atmosphere:

_______________

The atmosphere of Earth is the layer of gases, commonly known as air, that surrounds the planet Earth and is retained by Earth's gravity. The atmosphere of Earth protects life on Earth by creating pressure allowing for liquid water to exist on the Earth's surface, absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation, warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect), and reducing temperature extremes between day and night (the diurnal temperature variation).

biosphere :

______________

the regions of the surface and atmosphere of the earth or another planet occupied by living organisms.
