GY
 WHAT IS
Biogeology is the study of the interactions
BIOGEOLOGY?
of life with the Earth.
 THE
BIOSPHERE
The biosphere is composed of all the ecosystems on earth
where there is life.

It contains three systems:

The The The

atmosphere hydrosphere lythosphere
THE ATMOSPHERE
The atmosphere is made up of layers of
gases that surround the earth.

These layers provide living things with

air to breathe, trap heat to warm earth
and create a protective layer from the
Sun.
LAYERS OF THE ATMOSPHERE
Exosphere
The final layer stretches into space and houses satellites.

Thermosphere
This is the hottest layer because it absorbs the sun's radiation. Auroras occur in this layer.

Mesosphere
The coldest layer which protects us from meteors because they burn up in this layer.

Stratosphere
The ozone is found in this layer protecting us from UV rays

Troposphere
The layer in which we live and weather occurs.
 THE HYDROSPHERE
The hydrosphere is made up of all the water
found on, under and above the earth's surface.

This water can be found as liquid, vapor

or ice and makes up the water cycle on
Earth.

THE LITHOSPHERE
The lithosphere is the outer layer of the
Earth, made up of the crust and upper
mantle.

These layers provide plants with the

nutrients needed to grow and contain
the different rocks from the rock cycle.
 ALL ABOUT THE
LITHOSPHERE
There are two types of lithosphere:

Continental Oceanic
Lithosphere Lithosphere

The lithosphere is broken into plates and is often known for it's plate
tectonics, the movement that causes earthquakes, volcanos and create various
landmarks.
CONCLUSION
The three systems of the biosphere allow life to
sustain itself on earth and provide us with
Important details regarding earth's systems.
