Which process described shows the hydrosphere interacting with the lithosphere?
Arte-miy333 [17]

The process described which shows the hydrosphere interacting with the lithosphere is river water eroding a rocky bank and carrying silt to the sea which is therefore denoted as option B.

<h3>What is Hydrosphere?</h3>

This is referred to as the combined mass or quantity of water found on the plant such as earth and it comprises of different water bodies such as rivers, seas etc.

Lithosphere on the other hand is referred to as the solid, outer part of Earth which consists of the upper portion of the mantle and the crust in the form of rocks etc.

Water is very important in the ecosystem and is the reason why it is recycled so as to enable its presence which is usually in the form of precipitation. River water which is part of the hydrosphere erodes a rocky bank which forms part of the lithosphere.

The correct answer is - as energy lost at every trophic level.

In any ecological ecosystem the energy pyramids always upright unlike other pyramids such as biomass showing the number of organisms, that can be diamond shape, inverted or upright.

The main reason behind this is due to the fact that it is only a pyramid in the ecosystem that always unidirectional in the food chain which is always some energy lost with an increase in the trophic level in the food chain. This loss of energy always gets back to the atmosphere in each step of the food chain.

azamat

"Gravitational attraction" is initially responsible for the formation of the clumps of matter within this interstellar cloud.

<u>Answer:</u> Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

About 4.6 billion years ago, the solar systems were a bunch of gases and dusts, referred to solar nebula. Gravity squeezed the material as it started to rotate, creating the sun at the middle of the fog.

The rest of the material began to accumulate with the sunrise. The smaller particles moved together to form larger particles that were connected by gravity. As lumps develop, gravity increases and turns into kinetic energy of moving particles that collide and produce heat.
