An ecosystem involves both the biological (plants, animals, human beings) and non-biological (land, water, soil, and atmosphere) community which interacts as a system. More importantly, the living things are very dependent on the abiotic community since it cannot survive by itself. Every animal, plant and human needs the primary physiological needs of water, food and shelter provided by the abiotic system. <span>

<span>The biogeochemical cycles move through mainly the biotic and abiotic components of the earth, more elaborately the spheres -biospheres, lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere regions of the ecosystem. These biogeochemical cycles, from its terminology and discernable word morphology- involves the biological, geological and chemical components that make out to complete an exact and purposed cycle. The purpose in these cycles are to maintain balance and to ensure the ongoing process of the living and non-living organisms in the environment. These cycles’ help to living organisms survive and thrive. One popular example is the water cycle.

Well, D is definitely correct - t<span>hey both share cultures, especially along the border, because they used to be one country in the past.
I'm not sure about the second answer though, perhaps C (</span><span>They both work together as economic partners.) is correct because they do trade a lot. </span>
The Earth rumbles and a hiss of steam issues from the top of Mt Ruapehu. Are these two events related? Is the earthquake caused by the volcano? Or is the steam caused by the earthquake?
Tectonic plates
When Alfred Wegener first proposed the idea of continental drift (the precursor idea to plate tectonic theory), it didn’t quite explain the full story. While he correctly showed that Africa and South America fitted together, his model wasn’t able to explain the violent forces that occur around the Earth’scrust.
The average temperature of Earth given the solar irradiance is 238.4K.
<h3>How to calculate the temperature?</h3>
The following can be deduced from the information:
Let Earth's albedo =α =0.33
Radius of sun ( Rs) =6.955×10⁵
Value of Boltzmann constant= 5.67×10-⁸
L= 1350
T = average temperature
L= 4σ (Te)⁴ / (1-α)
1 - 0.33 = 4 × 5.67×10-⁸×(T)⁴ / 1350
0.67 × 1350 = 0.0000002268*(T)⁴
(T)⁴ = 3230357142.9
T = 238.4 k
In conclusion, the temperature is 238.4K.
<u>Complete question:</u>
Calculate the average temperature of Earth where the solar irradiance (L) is 1350W/m² and the albedo of Earth is 0.33. Consider Earth to be a perfect black body and the Stefan - Bollzmann constant to be 5.67 × 10^-8 W.
