Planet earth is generally thought of a composed of the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the lithosphere and the biosphere. The geosphere is often used to mean the same thing as lithosphere - rocks and stones. If this is how you are using the word, then the geosphere consists of the crust, the mantle and the core.

Summary There are three compositional layers in the earth, the core, the mantle, and the crust. The physical properties, of the outer portion of the earth produces the mesosphere, the asthenosphere, and the lithosphere. The lithosphere contains two different types of crust: oceanic and continental. The chemical composition of these types of crusts are different.
