The area near the surface of the earth can be divided up into four inter-connected geo-spheres: the lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and atmosphere.Scientists can classify life and material on or near the surface of the earth to be in any of these four spheres.The names of the four spheres are derived from the Greek words for stone (litho), air (atmo), water (hydro), and life (bio).ost of the planet's life is found from three meters below the ground to thirty meters above it and in the top 200 meters of the oceans and seas. The atmosphere is the body of air which surrounds our planet. Most of our atmosphere is located close to the earth's surface where it is most dense.
...four bodies are fire, air, water, earth. (339a15-16). Fire occupies the highest place among them all, earth the lowest, and two elements correspond to these in their relation to one another, air being nearest to fire, water to earth. (339a16-19).ome of the vapour that is formed by day does not rise high because the ratio of the fire that is raising it to the water that is being raised is small. (347a13-15). Both dew and hoar-frost are found when the sky is clear and there is no wind.
