Which sphere contains all of the plant and animal life on the earths surface?
This area is called the Biosphere. It contains all ecosystems around the earth.
What is the biosphere?
The biosphere, speaking generically, is all the living things -- plants and animals -- in the world.The biosphere is the global ecosystem, the sum of all the planet's ecosystems. This includes the atmosphere (several kilometers), and the land (at least 3000 meters below ground to the depth of several kilometers). It is often referred to as the "zone of life", where all of earths organisms live.Closed Biosphere (scientific research projects)The Biosphere is a sealed, self-supporting ecological environment created to study diverse ecosystems in a controlled medium. Large-scale experiments on human systems (Biosphere 2, BIOS-3) were carried out from 1972 to 1991, with only limited success. None showed the capability for long-term self-sufficiency.(see related links)the global sum of all ecosystemsThe official definition for the word biosphere is " the regions of the surface, atmosphere, and hydrosphere of the earth (or analogous parts of other planets) occupied by living organisms."
What does not cycle repeatedly through the earths ecosystem?
energy
What will happen if plants and animals disappear from the earths surface.Can human being survive under such a situation. Why is bio-diversity necessary and why should it be conserved?
If plants and animals disappeared, there would be no food. Humans would possibly turn to cannibolism (Agh, I know I misspelled that) and that would simply drive the population down even faster. Bio-diversity is necessary because without it, we will STARVE. I think it's fairly obvious why it should be conserved. It should be conserved because it is necessary. Duh.

How a change in the earths orbit can affect the earths climate?
earths tempertures
What is the main difference between earths water ecosystems?
It is saltiness
What might happen to tundra animals such as polar bears as earths Climate warm?
The Polar bears will die because they are used to living in a colder climate and not a warmer climat.

Differences between climatology and meteorology?
meteoralogy is the study of short term weather. like if its going to rain tomorrow or not. but climatology is the study of the earths climate in years to come. they can predict what will happen years from now, what animals/plants will survive and how the earths climate will change the face of the earth. hope this helps.
How is earth climate today diffrent from earths climate in the past?
i dont know what is it
What conditions allowed so many different kinds of mammals to evolve during the Cenozoic era?
Earth's climate warned during the tertiary period which allowed marine life to evolve and grasses evolved as well which meant grass eating mammals had a food source. Then the earths climate cooled facing a series of ice ages. Then 20000 years ago earths climate warmed again so ocean animals and land animals thrived.
What does the earths tilt determine?
mostly climate
What region includes all of the land and water ecosystems including all organisms resources and abiotic components as well as the atmosphere?
the biospere is the sum of all of the earths ecosystems
What does not control the climate?
Its because the suns variability actually has a big impact on earths climate.
How are plant fossils used as evidence for climate change?
the adaptations of species shown in the fossil record gives an idea to what their surrounding were like.scientists study fossils to learn about climates long ago. If a plant fossil looks like a modern plant , sicentist guess two plants need the same climate.
What is earths climate directly linked to?
Relationship to the sun
