Question
Select the correct answer.Nutrients in the soil aid the process of energy production through photosynthesis. In this example, between which two spheres is energy exchanged? A. biosphere to atmosphere B. biosphere to geosphere C. geosphere to biosphere D. hydrosphere to biosphere E. hydrosphere to atmosphere
Solution
The correct answer is C. geosphere to biosphere. This is because nutrients in the soil (geosphere) aid the process of energy production through photosynthesis in plants (biosphere).
