- Q6The atmosphere is the thin gaseous layer that envelopes the lithosphere. If Oxygen (O2) is only 21 % of its composition, which of the following gases is abundant in earth’s atmosphere?Carbon DioxideNitrogenWater VaporArgon30sS11/12ES-Ia-e- 4
- Q7What subsystem of the earth covers all ecosystems—from the soil to the rainforest, from mangroves to coral reefs, and from the plankton-rich ocean surface to the deep sea?HydrosphereGeosphereAtmosphereBiosphere30sS11/12ES-Ia-e- 4
- Q8Imagine that you have garden. Get one plant that could fit in a pot but do not put soil when you transfer it. Put the plant inside a box and leave it for one week. What do you think will happen to the plant?The roots of the plant will grow.The plant will die.The leaves of the plant will produce mists.The plant will grow and will produce flowers after a week.30sS11/12ES-Ia-e- 4
- Q9Among the four earth subsystems, which is closely associated with the soil, rocks, and minerals?AtmosphereBiosphereHydrosphereGeosphere30sS11/12ES-Ia-e- 4
- Q10One of the requirements for the survival of both animals and plants is water. Which of the following earth subsystems is interconnected in the statement?Biosphere and HydrosphereHydrosphere and GeosphereAtmosphere and geosphereAtmosphere and biosphere30sS11/12ES-Ia-e- 4
- Q11What will happen if matter or energy does not change from one form to another? For instance, what if water vapor does not fall back to the Earth as rain.Plants will continue to growth brought about by abundant water supplies on the environment.Organisms including humans and animals will have enough water supplies.There would be abundant supply of water on the bodies of water.The bodies of water will be drained, and no life on Earth will exist30sS11/12ES-Ia-e- 4
