The solar cycle or solar magnetic activity cycle is the nearly periodic 11-year change in the Sun's activity (including changes in the levels of solar radiation and ejection of solar material) and appearance (changes in the number and size of sunspots, flares, and other manifestations).
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. Comments.
The geosphere is considered that portion of the Earth system that includes the Earth's interior, rocks and minerals, landforms and the processes that shape the Earth's surface. The Earth itself (contrary to Christopher Columbus) is not a perfect sphere.he mantle makes up the largest volume of the Earth's interior. The region beneath the mantle is called the core, and consists of two parts, a liquid outer core that is around 2250 km thick and a solid inner core 1220 km thick.
