Q1 . How do some changes create feedback that affect other Earth systems?

Explain how Earth’s 4 spheres interact.
You in the atmosphere because water is a living thing. rocks and metals are living things. all living things live in the atmosphere.
Create examples of positive and negative feedback.
+ the enhancement or amplification of an effect by its own influence on the process that gives rise to it.
-the diminution or counteraction of an effect by its own influence on the process giving rise to it, as when a high level of a particular hormone in the blood may inhibit further secretion of that hormone, or where the result of a certain action may inhibit further performance of that action

Geosphere- Core, mantle, crust, mountains, rocks, sand, dust, and ocean floors
Hydrosphere- oceans, rivers, creeks, snow, rain, ice caps, groundwater, and glaciers
Atmosphere- oxygen, nitrogen, water vapor, ozone, and wind
Biosphere- plants, humans, insects, and animals
information about reactions to a product, a person's performance of a task, etc. which is used as a basis for improvement

Q3. How does water affect Earth’s surface processes?

Explain the movement of material by water.

Argue how important soil is to our environment.
Soil is important because you need it to grow and we need food to survive

Solid, liquid, and gas are the three forms. Gas is A state of matter that has no fixed shape. Solid is Definite shape and volume. Liquid is Constantly moving. 32 degrees is when it freezes, and it boils at 212. 220 Celsius, 100 cs.
Water freezes, melts into water and evaporation into the sky

Q5 What is the impact of developing and using energy resources on Earth’s living and non-living systems?

Reason the pros and cons of different kinds of mining with evidence.
Pros- easy way of getting things, infrastructure that improve the quality of our lives
Cons-damage mining operations cause to the environment
Compare and contrast renewable and nonrenewable resources.
Renewable is plastic, straws,plastic bags.
Nonrenewable is gas, coal, oil.
Discuss how human activity is impacting the environment.

-3 metallic and nonmetallic properties of ores:
Metallic- conduct electricity, shiny, opaque
Nonmetallic- insulators, dull, translucent
-Different types of mining:
Subsurface mining
Surface mining
Solution mining
-5 factors that influence the value of coal:
Taxes, seasonal, location, crude oil, and supply and demand
-Pros and cons of a pipeline:
Pros-
Inexpensive to operate
No air pollutants
Last much longer than fossil fuel plants
Cons- Expensive to build
Changes a river’s flow
Displaces life where reservoir is
Dead plants in water can release GHGs
-Human activity is affecting the environment because we are putting pollutants in the air and using a lot of resources

Q2. . How did life and Earth systems coevolve?

Describe ingredients and goldilocks conditions.
Ingredients- a component part or element of something
Goldilocks conditions- not being extreme or not varying drastically between extremes, especially between hot and cold
Use feedback to help explain the relationship between life and iand.
+ of life is we need land to live.
- is we are killing our planet

Seafloor Spreading - where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity then gradually moves away from the ridge. Tectonic plates grind past each other and produce faults. A trench or valley is formed at the edge of the plates.Magma is formed from this crust and comes up through volcanoes

Q4 . Why is carbon important?

Describe carbon sources and sinks. Carbon sources is where the carbon is coming from. Sink is where it goes.

Explain using evidence the impact CO2 has on our environment.
CO2’s impact is that we need it to live because to helps the trees grow.

Deep ocean Fosil pool Reactive sediments Soil Surface ocean Atmosphere Plant biomass are the carbon reservoirs. Grazing land, Built up land
Fishing grounds, Forest products, Crop land, Carbon Footprint are some of the things that need carbon

Q6. What issues does waste from humans cause?

Solid waste - Any discarded solid material. Problems aren’t only caused by the amount of solid waste but also by the type of solid waste
