Question

beneath the surface, hot rock is about to erupt from a volcano. carbon dioxide and other gases trap heat in the air above earth. hungry for a meal, a cheetah chases down a young antelope. rain falls onto a field, soaks into the soil, and waters the grass. which scenario illustrates the idea that earths spheres are interconnected?

Explanation:

The first scenario shows interaction between the geosphere (hot rock) and atmosphere (eruption). The second shows the interaction between the atmosphere (carbon - dioxide and other gases) and the atmosphere's heating effect on Earth. The third is a biosphere interaction between a predator (cheetah) and prey (antelope). The fourth shows interaction between the hydrosphere (rain) and geosphere (soil) and biosphere (grass). All these illustrate the interconnectedness of Earth's spheres.

Answer:

All of the above scenarios illustrate the idea that Earth's spheres are interconnected.
