Why does the water in the hydroshpere generally stay the same?

The water in the hydrosphere generally remains relatively constant due to the water cycle, where water evaporates from the surface, condenses into clouds, and falls back to the Earth as precipitation. This cycle helps maintain a balance by continually moving water between the atmosphere, oceans, and land.


How much of the hydroshpere is ice?

Technically, none of it. The hydrosphere is the liquid water on Earth. The Cryosphere is the ice. However, only 3 percent of the water on Earth is fresh, 97 % is salt water. Of that 3 % frsh water, 85 % is frozen so 85% of 3% of the water is frozen. So, 2.55% of Earths water is frozen.


What contains the most fresh water in the hydroshpere?

the Arctic glaciers. Well, the Antarctic ice sheets actually, contain about 4% of the world's water, and essentially all the world's fresh water (in % terms). Well 61% I have since found out.


What is the interactions between hydrosphere and geosphere?

The interactions between the hydrosphere and geosphere involve processes such as erosion, weathering, sedimentation, and the formation of landforms like rivers, lakes, and mountains. Water from the hydrosphere can shape the geosphere through physical and chemical weathering, while the geosphere influences the movement and distribution of water through processes like groundwater flow and aquifer formation.


What is the function of the water cycle in the biosphere?

Simply, biosphere is a zone or sphere on earth surface like atmosphere, hydroshpere and lithosphere. Biosphere is where all living beings are formed. So you know water is essential for evey living creatures (incuding plants). Due to heating and cooling of earth's surface water gets evaporation or evapotranspiration, condensation, precipitation, etc. This process is water cycle and which is matter for all life forms on earth. I think this is easiest to understand?
