ok plz google it don't waste your time
Answer:
Hydrosphere:
Water is a basic necessity of life. Since 2/3 of the Earth is covered by water, the Earth is also called the blue planet and the watery planet. The hydrosphere plays an important role in the existence of the atmosphere in its present form. Oceans are important in this regard.
Lithosphere:
If it weren't for the tectonic plates of the lithosphere there would be no change on Earth. Tectonic plates shift due to convection currents lower down in the mantle, and this can cause the formation of mountains, the eruption of volcanoes, and earthquakes. While this can be devastating in the short-run, long term benefits are the formation of new plant life, the creation of new habitats and encouraging adaptation.
It is also the source of almost all of our resources, and is rich in elements like iron, aluminium, calcium, copper and magnesium, which humans have used for tools and machinery for millennia.
When the biosphere interacts with the lithosphere, organic compounds can become buried in the crust, and dug up as oil, coal or natural gas that we can use for fuels.
In combination with the atmosphere and hydrosphere (water), it provides a stable source of nutrients for botanical life, which produce glucose that higher organisms use for sustenance.
Atmosphere:
It provides us with oxygen to breathe so we can live.
It shields us from the sun’s harmful radiation.
It provides us wit precipitation so we have water to drink and use for many purposes.
It provides a medium to absorb, carry away, and disperse the waste gases we generate in various ways.
It provides plants with carbon dioxide and water so the can live and serves as the basis for our food.
