Detailed explanation-1: -The biosphere is made up of the parts of Earth where life exists-all ecosystems. The biosphere extends from the deepest root systems of trees, to the dark environments of ocean trenches, to lush rain forests, high mountaintops, and transition zones like this one, where ocean and terrestrial ecosystems meet.

Detailed explanation-2: -The biosphere supports between 3 and 30 million species of plants, animals, fungi, single-celled prokaryotes such as bacteria, and single-celled eukaryotes such as protozoans (Figure 1).

Detailed explanation-3: -The biosphere is the part of Earth, including the air, land, surface rocks, and water, where life is found. Parts of the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere make up the biosphere. The Gaia hypothesis states that theBiosphere is its own living organism.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Biosphere includes all life on Earth including life living on the Earth’s Geosphere and in Hydrosphere, including humans and all organic matter that has not yet decomposed.

Detailed explanation-5: -Earth’s biosphere is the layer of the planet where life exists. That means you, me, plants, insects, bacteria, and living things on land, air, and oceans make up the biosphere.
