The hydrosphere (from Greek ὕδωρ - hudōr, "water"[1] and σφαῖρα - sphaira, "sphere"[2]) in physical geography describes the combined mass of water found on, under, and over the surface of a planet.
The lithosphere (Ancient Greek: λίθος [lithos] for "rocky", and σφαῖρα [sphaira] for "sphere") is the rigid[1]outermost shell of a rocky planet. On Earth, it comprises the crust and the portion of the upper mantle that behaves elastically on time scales of thousands of years or greater.
What else can I help you with?
What are the 4 subsystem of the earth?
lithosphere , biosphere, hydrosphere, atmostphere
What is the difference between the geosphere and lithosphere?
Hydrosphere - water Lithosphere - land So far, that's all I can say.
Which of earths spheres are involved in the water cycle?
BBisosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere
Is the lithosphere made up of all of the liquid frozen or gaseous water on Earth?
Not. That is the hydrosphere. The lithosphere is composed of stone.
What is the definition of hydrosphere?
The English term 'hydrosphere' means the watery layer of the earth's surface; the waters of the earth's surface as distinguished from those of the lithosphere and the atmosphere. Hydrosphere also means the water vapor in the earth's atmosphere.
What is the top layer of the lithosphere?
hydrosphere
How is the lithosphere part of the hydrosphere?
The lithosphere is not part of the hydrosphere. The lithosphere is the solid outer layer of Earth that includes the crust and upper mantle, while the hydrosphere refers to all the water on Earth's surface, like oceans, lakes, and rivers.
Earths troposphere hydrosphere and lithosphere contain relatively large amounts of which element?
Troposphere: nitrogen Lithosphere and hydrosphere: oxygen
Where do the hydrosphere and the lithosphere meet?
Shorelines and riverbanks.
What are Example of biosphere?
lithosphere,hydrosphere and atmosphere
What makes the biosphere?
Atmosphere Lithosphere Hydrosphere
What is the meaning of the hydrosphere?
Lithosphere is all the land on earth. And hydrosphere is all the water on earth.
What one has the most dense lithosphere hydrosphere or atmosphere?
The lithosphere has the highest density among the three Earth layers. The lithosphere is composed of solid rock, while the hydrosphere is made up of water and the atmosphere contains gases. The lithosphere's density is influenced by its composition and the pressure it is under.
Do the atmosphere hydrosphere and the lithosphere interact with each other?
Hydrosphere erodes a part of lithosphere and at the same time the atmosphere is constantly incorporating a part of hydrosphere via evaporation and dumping some of it in lithosphere. From the lithosphere, it is transported back to the hydrosphere and the cycle continues.
Are lakes part of the lithosphere?
No. Lakes are part of the hydrosphere.
What are the components of the earth?
biosphere,lithosphere,hydrosphere,atmosphere
What are the Domains of Earth?
lithosphere , hydrosphere , atmosphere and biosphere.
