Atmosphere

The atmosphere, the envelope of air
 which surrounds the earth, extends
about 200 miles from the surface,
and is composed of  four strata:
the troposphere, the stratosphere,
the ionosphere, and the exosphere. 

Lithosphere

   The lithosphere is the solid outer
crust of the earth , on which all the
land and water of the earth rest. 

Hydrosphere

   The hydrosphere is all the water 
of  the earth, including the water
 in the atmosphere.

Barysphere

   The barysphere is the inner portion
of the earth that lies beneath the
lithosphere. it is composed of two distinct
regions or layers: the mantle and the core.
