What three areas of Earth work together so life in the biosphere thrives?
A
the lithosphere, mesosphere, and stratosphere
B
the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere
C
the troposphere, mesosphere, and lithosphere
D
the hydrosphere, mesosphere, and atmosphere
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The biosphere is the region of the Earth where life can be found, including the soil, water, and air. The lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere are the names for these three components. The lithosphere is the landmass of the Earth, except for the mantle and core, which are inhospitable to life.

Detailed explanation-2: -The biosphere refers to the zone of Earth containing life. It is made of three parts-lithosphere, atmosphere and hydrosphere. The biosphere refers only to regions where life is sustained, such as the lower atmosphere where birds can fly.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overview. 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.

Detailed explanation-4: -The 4 spheres are: lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air) and biosphere (living things).

Detailed explanation-5: -These spheres are closely connected. For example, many birds (biosphere) fly through the air (atmosphere), while water (hydrosphere) often flows through the soil (lithosphere). In fact, the spheres are so closely connected that a change in one sphere often results in a change in one or more of the other spheres.
