Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When the availability of water impacts plant growth and animals who depend on plants for food the interaction is between the ____ and ____
A
biosphere and geosphere
B
hydrosphere and biosphere
C
atmosphere and geosphere
D
atmosphere and hydrosphere
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydrosphere and Atmosphere The evaporation that occurs in the hydrosphere forms the medium for cloud and rain formation in the atmosphere. The atmosphere brings back this water to the hydrosphere in the form of rain.

Detailed explanation-2: -If a plant’s soil has too much water, the roots can rot, and the plant can’t get enough oxygen from the soil. If there is not enough water for a plant, the nutrients it needs cannot travel through the plant. A plant cannot grow if it doesn’t have healthy roots, so the proper balance of water is key when growing plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -For example, rain (hydrosphere) falls from clouds in the atmosphere to the lithosphere and forms streams and rivers that provide drinking water for wildlife and humans as well as water for plant growth (biosphere). River action erodes banks (lithosphere) and uproots plants (biosphere) on the riverbanks.
