Which of the following is an example of water transferring from the atmosphere to the cryosphere?

A.

Rain falls on the Earth's surface and seeps into the ground, forming a groundwater reservoir.

B.

An iceberg floats into warm waters and melts.

C.

A riverbed dries up during a severe heat wave and drought.

D.

Snow falls on a glacier and is gradually compacted into ice over many years.

Just did it its D

Snow falls on a glacier and is gradually compacted into ice over many years.

Explanation:

Option D is correct because it directly related to the phenomenon of transferring water from the atmosphere to the cryosphere. The cryosphere is the frozen part of Earth that mainly represent Antarctica and the Arctic. Therefore, snow falling on the glacier and continuous compacting over the years represent the transferring of water from the atmosphere to the cryosphere.

One the other hand, A, B, and C are incorrect options. A describes a phenomenon in which atmospheric water restore groundwater storage via seepage. B represents a situation where frozen water (cryosphere) melts and form surface water (oceanic water.) C is a condition where evaporation causes drying of a river resulting in drought.

trachea, alveoli, lung capillaries, arteries

that would be called plucking : )

explanation:

''plucking, also referred to as quarrying, is a glacial phenomenon that is responsible for the erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint blocks". as a glacier moves down a valley, friction causes the basal ice of the glacier to melt and infiltrate joints (cracks) in the bedrock."
