How are Earth’s organisms and crust interdependent?
sattari [20]
The Lithosphere contains all of the cold, hard, solid rock of the planet's crust, the hot semi-solid rock below the crust, the hot liquid rock near the center of the planet, and the solid iron core. The biosphere is the sphere that contains all of the Earth's living organisms. The organisms and crust interact through events between spheres, such as natural events like floods, shifts in the Earth's crust. Some event as such could create soil erosion resulting in decreased vegetation and increase death of organisms. <span>
