Question

conclusion for four natural realms

Answer 1

Realms of Earth: The Four Great Realms: The natural systems encountered in physical geography operate within the four great realms, or spheres, of the Earth. These are the atmosphere; the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, and the biosphere. Lithosphere - All processes associated with the solid earth Hydrosphere - All processes associated with water Atmosphere - All processes associated with the gases that envelope the earth Biosphere - All processes that involve living organisms
Four great Realms
Biosphere The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems. The biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The biosphere is postulated to have evolved, beginning with a process of biopoiesis (life created naturally from non-living matter such as simple organic compounds) or biogenesis (life created from living matter), at least some 3.5 billion years ago. On land, the life layer is the zone of interactions among the biosphere, lithosphere, and atmosphere
BioSphere and Four Realms of Earth.
Hydrosphere The hydrosphere describes the combined mass of water found on, under, and over the surface of a planet.
Lithosphere A lithosphere is the rigid outermost shell of a rocky planet, and can be identified on the basis of its mechanical properties. It comprises the crust and the portion of the upper mantle that behaves elastically on time scales of thousands of years or greater This outermost solid layer of the Earth provides a platform for most life-forms. The solid bedrock bears a shallow layer of soil in which nutrient elements become available to organisms. The surface of the lithosphere is sculpted into landforms which provide varied habitats for plants, animals, and humans.
Lithosphere Different Layers
Inside the Earth
Rock Formation
Atmosphere Thin Gaseous envelope The gaseous layer that surrounds the Earth. It receives heat and moisture from the surface and redistributes them, returning some heat and all of the moisture to the surface. It supplies vital elements needed to sustain life forms. Thin Gaseous envelope
ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE Greenhouse gases This diagram shows the average global temperature of air at altitude. Temperature tends to decrease with altitude Temperature inversions (when it increases with altitude) occur where various gases cause varying rates absorption of radiation ENVIRONMENTAL LAPSE RATE
