Question
the earth is made up of five interdependent spheres: the geosphere (lithosphere), hydrosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere. the spheres are so closely connected that a change in one sphere often results in a change in one or more of the other spheres. changes that take place within an ecosystem are referred to as events. events can occur naturally or they can be caused by humans. an event can cause changes to occur in one or more of the spheres or an event can be the effect of changes in one or more of earths four spheres. this cause and effect relationship between an event and a sphere is called an interaction.
water in the lake seeps into the cliff walls behind the dam, becoming groundwater, or evaporating into the air. add to this scenario to include an interaction with the biosphere.
The biosphere consists of all living organisms. To include an interaction with the biosphere, we can mention how plants (part of the biosphere) use the water (from the hydrosphere - lake water) for photosynthesis. For example, plants near the lake absorb water through their roots (which could be water that seeped into the ground from the lake). This shows a connection between the hydrosphere (lake water) and the biosphere (plants). Another example could be animals (in the biosphere) drinking water from the lake.
