Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

Lithosphere refers to all the portions on earth where life exists. In simple words, the lithosphere is the layer that is comprised of the crust and a small portion of the upper mantle. Here the rocks are solid in nature.

Biosphere refers to the region that includes the land surfaces, hydrosphere as well as the atmosphere in which life exists and interacts. It occurs both above and below the earth's surface.

The rocks are disintegrated by both physical and chemical processes. These rocks when they are broken apart into smaller particles, then these sediments or rock particles are deposited in the soil that provides the necessary materials for the plants to grow.  

Thus, the two spheres with which it interacts are the lithosphere and the biosphere.

Hence, the correct answer is option (2).

If we assume the measure of B<br> gº<br> А<br> Measure of Ze
allsm [11]

Answer:

c = 55° and d = 125°

Explanation:

Given that,

\angle a=85^{\circ}\\\\\angle b = 40^{\circ}

We need to find the measure of angle c and angle d.

We know that the sum of angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. So,

a+b+c = 180

85+40+c = 180

125+c=180

c = 180-125

= 55°

Using exterior angle theorem,

d = a+b

d = 85+40

d = 125°

Hence, c = 55° and d = 125°

The worldwide use of cleaner energy sources could result in what?Which one is it?a rise in ocean levelsa reduction in acid rain
sammy [17]


The best answer is reduction in acid rain.

Acid rain is rainfall which has been rendered acidic by pollutants  in the atmosphere.  This kind of rain is typically harmful to  forests and lakes.

The main cause of acid rain is human activities. The burning of fossil fuels such coal in electrical generating plants and crude oil products such as gasoline and diesel in car engine  releases  sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere.

These compounds mix with water very high up in the atmosphere and form acid pollutants which  fall on the ground as acid rain.

 Use of clean energy will eliminate burning of fossil fuels and thus no acid rain will be produced.
