Explanation:

The biosphere comes into contact with several other spheres such as the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the atmosphere.

Contact with the atmosphere is a two way street since the biosphere can alter the composition of the atmosphere. However, many members of the biosphere like mammals and birds depend on the mix of gases in the atmosphere to survive, and weather is an important agent of change.

The lithosphere is another sphere that can impact the biosphere through geologic activity both underground and on the surface. The impact of the biosphere on the lithosphere can be observed through the altering and transformation of terrains and through biochemical weathering of rocks.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

23.5º

Explanation:

The Earth has a tilt of 23.5 degrees on its axis. This tilt causes the seasons because certain parts of the Earth are naturally tilted towards the Sun more depending on the Earth's location in its revolution around the Sun. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are located at 23.5º North and South of the equator respectively, and this number comes from the tilt.
