“Before the coming of life the earth was a bleak place, a rocky globe with shallow seas and a thin

band of gasses, largely carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, molecular nitrogen, hydrogen, sulfide

and water vapor”.(Britannica encyclopedia )

The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems integrating all living organisms and their

relations including their interactions with the elements of the hydrosphere and atmosphere.

This strictly inorganic state is called earth, called the geosphere, it consists of lithosphere (the

rock and soil) the hydrosphere (the water) and the atmosphere (the air). Energy from the sun

relentlessly bombards the surface of the earth.

The biosphere is a system characterized by the continuous cycling of matter and a flow of solar

 energy in which certain  large molecules and cells are self producing. The biosphere is of

biogenesis, at least 3.5 billion years ago. Biospheres are any enclosed self regulating ecosystem,

sometimes even manmade ones.

The term biosphere was named by geologist Eduard Seuss in which he defined as “the place on

earth’s surface were life dwells”. Some life and earth scientists have used biosphere in a different

sense, like geochemist  define biosphere  as the total sum of living organisms. All life on earth

depends ultimately upon green plants as well as water. Plants utilize sunlight in a process called

photosynthesis to produce food and provide as a by-product. Living (Biotic) communities and

their non-living (Abiotic) environment are inseparably interrelated and constantly interact upon each other.

For convenience, any segment of the landscape that includes the biotic and abiotic components is

 called a ecosystem. Energy and organizations a in important characteristic of life that is an

  organized system that is capable of creating more order from less. The cycling of matter in the

 biosphere is generally patterns and chemical cycles in the cycling of matter (nutrients and

water), as well as the flow of energy. No organism can grow and continue its kind for millions of

generations without replenishing the elements that supports it.

In conclusion, is that God has created everyone and everything with a purpose in mind. For

 example cycling matter must happen. We use energy, water and carbon (Just to name a few). In

closing is that earth is very functional with all the cycling and other things that take place in our

biosphere.
