Definitions:  Hydrosphere?  Geosphere?  Cryosphere?  Biosphere?  Atmosphere?

Lithosphere  Layer of the earth on which we live.  We live on the top layer of the lithosphere, the crust.  The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the thin upper layer of the mantle which is solid.  Since most of the mantle is hot liquid which flows, the lithosphere is able to slide along top.

Atmosphere

Layers of the Atmosphere Troposphere : Layer in which we live, gases are denser and temp is higher closer to Earth Stratosphere : Holds 19% of Earth’s gases, ozone is formed here, planes can be found in this area. Mesosphere : Gases become thinner, meteors burn up here Thermosphere : Known as the upper atmosphere, gases are very thin, UV radiation and x-rays are absorbed, satellites
