Composition of

EARTH
Earth Is Divided Yet Connected
* The Earth is divided into
4 “Sub-systems” or
“Spheres” namely:
 ATMOS(Gaseous)-
SPHERE.
HYDRO(Water)-
SPHERE
LITHOS(Rock)-SPHERE
BIOS(Life)-SPHERE

* They are interdependent


and function as a whole.
*The layer of gas
surrounding Earth’s
surface.
*This is the Earth’s
sphere that supports
life.
*This sphere regulates
the climate.
*It acts both as a
blanket and a filter.
 Earth’s atmosphere is a
mixture of gases, mostly
nitrogen and oxygen, with
smaller amounts of Argon,
Carbon dioxide, and other
gases.

This is layer of atmosphere we see in images


outside Earth

The coldest part of the atmosphere. It can get


down to -90°C in the mesosphere

Contains ozone that absorbs much of the Sun’s


ultraviolet radiation.
Contains most clouds and weather.
The solid part of the earth.
4. Crust

3. Mantle

2. Outer core

1. Inner core
It is composed of all the
water found on under and
over the surface of the
planet. (Including different
bodies of water.)

This sphere covers about


70% of the surface of the
Earth and is the home for
many plants and animals.
Most of Earth's water is salty
and in the oceans - about
97%.

Two-thirds of the remaining


3% is frozen in glaciers and
polar ice caps.

Only 1% of the hydrosphere is liquid


freshwater, and even most of this
exists as groundwater down in the
soil
It is composed of all of the living organisms on
the planet. This includes all of the people,
plants, animals, bacteria, fungi and single-
celled organisms found on Earth.
