Answer:

Water from rivers erodes the banks, the ice breaks up rocks, intense rainfall causes mass wasting, water from rainfall flows as runoff and creates ripples.

Explanation:

Earth has several spheres, all of which have their own unique characteristics that define them as such. Despite all of them being very different from each other, they can not exist in the form they are if there is no interaction with the other spheres, thus all of the spheres are interconnected and they depend on one another.

Two of those hydrospheres are the hydrosphere and geosphere, and they interact in many different ways. When there is rainfall, the water that ends on land flows as runoff until it reaches a water body, and while it does so it manages to create ripples in the ground. If there is intense rainfall in an area where there is steep and unstable terrain, it can easily cause mass wasting by oversaturating the soil with water. The water that flows in the rivers with its power is constantly eroding the banks. If water freezes and turns to ice because its volume becomes greater, it is able to break up rocks with the pressure it creates on them.
