A canyon is a natural area where both living and non-living organisms are found. Residing near it brings several benefits. One of these is having the opportunity to exercise. A person may access the canyon for his daily jog or walk. He may also do a little bit of hiking. Another benefit is having good quality of water (free from pollutants). The vegetation in the canyon prevents the urban runoff (usually from storms) from polluting the bodies of water. Lastly, it gives the person a chance to see wildlife. Many of the canyons are being preserved; thus, it's an opportunity to see many endangered habitats in it.

Define the five systems in a Biosphere . Be sure to include enough information to distinguish each system from the others.

professor190 [17]

The Biosphere is the zone of earth, land and air where life exists. It is a complex multilayered system that is typically broken up into 3 (not 5) distinct components. These are:

1. Lithosphere -this is essentially the land (the solid component of earth).

2. Hydrosphere - the watery parts of the earths surface including oceans, lakes, pools.

3. Atmosphere - the gas component enveloping earth supporting life, including the lower atmosphere and gases such oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen.
