SCIENCE REVIEWER

THE REASON WHY THE EARTH IS HABITABLE BECAUSE EARTH HAS A

RIGHT AMOUNT OF OXYGEN,WATER,SUNLIGHT,PROTECTIVE
ATMOSPHERE,TEMPERATURE AND GRAVITY.
OXYGEN-IS A KEY INGREDIENT TO LIFE.ALL HUMAN BEINGS BREATH OXYGEN
WATER-IS ESSENTIAL FOR LIFE OUR BODIES ARE 50-70% WATER.
PHOTOSYNTHESIS-SUNLIGHT IS VERY IMPORTANT.HEAT,LIGHT, AND ENERGY ALL
COME FROM THE SUN.
PROTECTIVE ATMOSPHERE-THE PROTECTIVE ATMOSPHERE AROUND THE IS
NEEDED TO FOR THE SURVIVAL OF HUMAN.
THE OZONE IS LAYER IS THE LAYER AROUND THE EARTH THAT SCREENS OUT
HARMFUL RADIATION.
THE SUN/TEMPERATURE- EARTHS IDEAL DISTANCE FROM THE SUN,IT RECEIVES
THE PERFECT AMOUNT OF HEAT AND LIGHT TO SUPPORT LIFE.
GRAVITY-GRAVITY IS WHAT HOLDS US DOWN TO THE PLANET,WITHOUT IT WE
WOULD FLY OUT INTO SPACE.

HUMAN BODY SYSTEM ON MARS

THE EARTH IS ESSSENTIALLY A CLOSED SYSTEM.
A “CLOSED SYSTEM” IS A SYSTEM IN WHICH THERE IS ONLY AN EXCHANGE OF
HEAT OR ENERGY AND NO EXCHANGE OF MATTER.
COMPONENTS OR SUBSYSTEMS OF THE EARTH SYSTEM
BIOSPHERE-INCLUDES ALL THE LIFE FORMS ON THE EARTH
HYDROSPHERE- DYNAMIC MASS OF WATER IS CONTINUOSLY ON THE MOVE.
ABOUT 70% OF THE EARTH IS COVERED WITH LIQUID WATER.
ONLY 3% OF EARTH’S WATER IS FRESH: TWO THIRDS ARE IN THE FORM OF ICE,
AND THE REMAINING ONE THIRD IS PRESENT IN STREAMS,LAKES AND GROUND
WATER
ESTUARY-WHEN THE WATER SALT AND WATER RIVER MEETS.
HYDROLOGIC CYCLE-
CONDENSATION,PRECIPITATION,EVAPORATION,INFILTRATION,SURFACE RUNOFF.
GEOSPHERE-THE SOLID EARTH EXTENDS FROM THE SURFACE TO THE CENTER.
ATMOSPHERE-THE THIN GASEOUS LAYER THAT ENVELOPES THE LITHOSPHERE.

THE PRESENT ATMOSPHERE IS COMPOSED OF 78% NITROGEN(N),21%

OXYGEN(O2),0.9% ARGON, AND TRACE AMOUNT OF OTHER GASES.
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PROCESSES BY WHICH THE HEAT ON THE EARTH’S
SURFACE IS REDISTRIBUTED IS THROUGH “ATMOSPHERIC CIRCULATION”.
LAYERS OF EARTH:
CRUST-CONTINENTAL & OCEANIC
UPPER MANTLE
MANTLE-UPPER AND LOWER
OUTER CORE
INNER CORE.
LITHOSPHERE-INCLUDES THE CRUST AND THE UPPER PART OF THE MANTLE.
CRUST-IT’S THE LIGHT AND VERY THIN OUTER SKIN OF THE EARTH.
-THE OUTERMOST LAYER WHERE ENERGY AND MINERAL RESOURCES ARE
DERIVED.
DIFFERENT ELEMENT THAT COMPOSE THE EARTH’S CRUST
OXYGEN-46.60
SILICON-27.72
ALUMINUN-8.13
IRON-5.00
CALCIUM-3.63
SODIUM-2.83
POTASSIUM-2.59
MAGNESIUM-2.09
TITANIUM-0.40
HYDROGEN-0.14
MANTLE- LESS DENSE LAYER
-MADE UP OF SILICATE ROCKS,MOSTLY MADE OF THE ELEMENTS
SILICON,OXYGEN, IRON AND MAGNESIUM.
CORE-DENSER LAYER
-THE EARTH’S MAGNETIC FIELD
-STRENGTHENS THE IDEA THAT THE EARTH’S OUTER CORE IS MOLTEN/LIQUID.
