Question 13
Suppose there is a rise in atmospheric temperature on Earth. How would this affect the cryosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere?
View Answer Hide Answer
  • Cryosphere: glaciers and polar ice melt faster. Hydrosphere: sea levels rise and rainfall patterns become more variable.
  • Biosphere: habitats are lost and ecosystems are disturbed — showing how a change in one sphere ripples through the others.
