  • The lithosphere is the sphere that contains all of the landforms on Earth. This sphere is solid, and it is the one that forms the landmasses on our planet.
  • The biosphere is the sphere that contains all of life forms on Earth. Animals, plants, bacteria, fungi, humans, all are part of this sphere, and make this planet unique in its surroundings in the universe.
  • The atmosphere is the sphere that contains the air. This sphere is located between the surface of Earth and the space. It is the sphere that provides suitable conditions for life, creates weather, and protection.
  • The hydrosphere is the sphere that contains all of the water on Earth. It is the sphere that forms all of the oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, marshes etc. This sphere can be found as freshwater, saline water, and as frozen (often also put into separate sphere, cryosphere).

B. Urbanization increases/decreases (highlight one) the lag time between rainfall and peak stream flow. (1 pt)
inessss [21]

Answer:

explained below.

Explanation:

b) Urbanization decreases  the lag time because the  loss of the rainfall decrease as the water absorbed by the ground decreases and water reaches to the river very quickly.

c) In urbanization the runoff occurs for small period of time because there is no hindrance in the flow of the rainfall so the runoff reaches very quickly to the water body.

d) Intense rainfall in urban area often experience the flash flood condition because there no absorption of water by the ground, trees are less so which does not lead to perception of water by leaves of the tree hence all the rainfall is basically converted into runoff and city does not have system to act on the situation which lead to flash flood condition.
