Answer:

1. contains the Earth's landforms - Lithosphere

2. contains the Earth's life forms - Biosphere

3. contains the Earth's air - Atmosphere

4. contains the Earth's water - Hydrosphere

Explanation:

Earth is a planet that has numerous spheres. All of the spheres are constantly interacting with each other, depend on each other, and have big influence on each other, making one very complex interconnected system.

  • The lithosphere is the sphere that contains all of the landforms on Earth. This sphere is solid, and it is the one that forms the landmasses on our planet.
  • The biosphere is the sphere that contains all of life forms on Earth. Animals, plants, bacteria, fungi, humans, all are part of this sphere, and make this planet unique in its surroundings in the universe.
  • The atmosphere is the sphere that contains the air. This sphere is located between the surface of Earth and the space. It is the sphere that provides suitable conditions for life, creates weather, and protection.
  • The hydrosphere is the sphere that contains all of the water on Earth. It is the sphere that forms all of the oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, marshes etc. This sphere can be found as freshwater, saline water, and as frozen (often also put into separate sphere, cryosphere).

Ipatiy [6.2K]

The correct answer is C, Divides the flow of river systems in the United States into east and west.

Explanation

The continental divide is the name of the main hydrological divide in America. The divide is a mountain range that divides the eastern and western slopes. Those that are considered eastern run until they reach the Arctic and Atlantic oceans, while those that are considered western run until they reach the Pacific ocean. In the case of North America, it begins in Alaska, goes through the north of Alaska to Canada where it goes south. It continues through the western region of Canada towards the south until it reaches the United States where it crosses the states of Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, and Wyoming. Later, it reaches the Mexican territory, where it takes a central road through the middle of the country until it reaches the southern countries of Mexico, such as Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. According to the above, the correct answer is C. divides the flow of river systems in the United States into east and west

The Guayas River flows through the largest city in Ecuador, which is?
makvit [3.9K]
The Guayas River flows through Guyaquil, which is the largest city in Ecuador. However, it is not the capital city, which is Quito. The Guayas River has it's name, because it flows through the Guayas province. The Guayas River does not flow into any ocean or sea. Guayaquil is also the most populated in Ecuador. The city underwent relatively recently an "urban renegation" to attract more tourists to that particular region of Ecuador. This was also to help boost the economy, since at the moment it mostly consists of small and medium businesses, agriculture and aquaculture.
