The hydrosphere provides
much of the water for cloud
formation and precipitation in
the atmosphere. Air masses
take on the characteristics of
the area over which they form,
such as a hot, dry desert.
Water moves between the
hydrosphere, cryosphere,
atmosphere, biosphere, and
geosphere through the
processes of evaporation,
condensation, transpiration,
and precipitation.
Accept all reasonable responses. Sample answer: Air
masses take on the characteristics of the areas over which
they form. Therefore, weather is determined by an air
mass’s formation over land or water and the warmth or
coolness of that land or water.
Liquid water changes into gas.
Plants release water vapor through
their pores.
Animals release water vapor from their
lungs when they breathe.
Water vapor changes to liquid water.

How do Earth systems interact in the rock cycle? SC.6.E.7.4
Our Planet—Earth 45
The atmosphere, biosphere,
and hydrosphere interact with
the geosphere through
weathering, erosion, and
deposition.
Magma inside the geosphere erupts
as lava and cools at Earth’s surface.
Minerals from groundwater crystallize
between grains of compressed
sediment and cement them together.
Metamorphic rock forms deep beneath Earth’s surface.
Accept all reasonable responses. Sample answer: Weather, which occurs in the
atmosphere, is causing rain to fall. The water, part of the hydrosphere, is carrying
sediment down the hill; the sediment and hill are both part of the geosphere. The
sediment and water in the animal’s burrow will cause the animal, part of the
biosphere, to have to repair its home. As it digs, the animal is changing geosphere.
Mineral crystals form as liquid rock
cools.
Large bodies of Earth material are
moved to higher elevations.
Factors in the atmosphere, the
hydrosphere and the biosphere break
rock into sediment.
Wind, water, and glaciers carry
sediment to new locations.
Eroded sediments are deposited in
new places.
The weight of layers of sediment
presses down on layers below.
