A drought causes a wildfire which destroys a forest. Which Earth systems interact during this process? (1 point) Select one: a.
Ne4ueva [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>It is the biosphere and hydrosphere that interact when a drought causes a wildfire that destroys a forest. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydrosphere consists of all the water bodies of earth like oceans, seas, rivers, lakes etc.  a drought occurs due to scarcity of water which affects the hydrosphere. The scarcity of water causes plants and trees to dry up and become more prone to catching fire

Biosphere includes all the living organisms of the earth. It includes plants, trees, birds, insects, animals etc. A drought dries up a whole area and a small fire that starts up somewhere in  a forest would then engulf the whole forest.

What would most likely happen to plants if they did not have a waxy outer coating?
belka [17]
Plants need this waxy outer coating, also known as a cuticle, for a variety of reasons. The cuticle keeps the important things the plant needs in, such as water and carbon dioxide, and the things the plant doesn't need, such as too much heat, out. It performs a few different functions, including protecting the important cells needed for photosynthesis.
