6 continued Lesson 2 Interactions of Earth Systems (continued) 22 Explain five processes that occur within the water cycle NGSSS Check How do Earth systems interact in the water cycle? SC6E74 Water moves between the hydrosphere, cryosphere, atmosphere, biosphere, and geosphere through the Process Evaporation Transpiration Respiration Explanation Liquid water changes into gas Plants release water vapor through their pores Animals release water vapor from their lungs when they breathe Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc Copyright Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc processes of evaporation, condensation, transpiration, and precipitation Changes in the Atmosphere 24 NGSSS Check How does weather show interactions of Earth systems? SC6E74 The hydrosphere provides much of the water for cloud formation and precipitation in the atmosphere Air masses take on the characteristics of the area over which they form, such as a hot, dry desert Condensation Precipitation Describe factors that influence weather Factor Air temperature Air pressure Wind Humidity Description Relate how weather is influenced by conditions in the geosphere and the hydrosphere Accept all reasonable responses Sample answer: Air masses take on the characteristics of the areas over which they form Therefore, weather is determined by an air mass s formation over land or water and the warmth or coolness of that land or water Water vapor changes to liquid water Moisture falls from clouds to Earth s surface average amount of energy produced by the motion of air molecules the force exerted by air molecules in all directions the movement of air caused by differences in air pressure the amount of water vapor in a given volume of air Our Planet Earth 43 Study Guide Study Guide Our Planet Earth 43
