Biosphere
Lithosphere
The Atmosphere--contains all the air in Earth's system. It extends from less than 1 m below the planet's surface to more than 10,000 km above the planet's surface.
The Hydrosphere -- contains all the solid, liquid, and gaseous water of the planet. It ranges from 10 to 20 kilometers in thickness. The hydrosphere extends from Earth's surface downward several kilometers into the lithosphere and upward about 12 kilometers into the atmosphere.
The Lithosphere--contains all of the cold, hard solid land of the planet's crust (surface), the semi-solid land underneath the crust, and the liquid land near the center of the planet.
The Biosphere
--contains all the planet's living things. This sphere includes all of the microorganisms, plants, and animals of Earth.
Within the biosphere, living things form ecological communities based on the physical surroundings of an area.
