Which of the following theories is considered to be the most accepted theory of the origin of the universe?

Which of the following planets has a global magnetic field?

Photosynthesis shows the interaction between the biosphere and what subsystem?

Which of the following is true about Earth’s four subsystems?

About 70% of Earth’s surface is covered with liquid water and much of it is in the form of ocean water. 3% of Earth's water is fresh; 2/3 is in the form of ice, and the remaining 1/3 is in streams, lakes, and groundwater

There are two types of crust: oceanic crust and continental crust. Continental crust is denser that oceanic crust.

The combined part of the crust and uppermost solid part of the mantle form the brittle upper layers of the Earth's interior called the lithosphere. The upper mantle is also called the asthenosphere - the highly viscous, mechanically weak, and ductile region of the upper mantle of the earth.

The core is basically made up of iron, with a small amount of copper. The liquid iron in the outer core is especially important in that it is the primary source of the Earth's magnetic field.
