An understanding of the Earth's systems and spheres takes practice. More importantly, we can see the "Domino Effect" of the spheres as they interact with one another. We have learned that while endogenic processes are separate from exogenic process, the lithosphere affects the atmosphere which affects the hydrosphere, and the biosphere.
