Ecosystem and Biosphere

Biosphere

The biosphere is the part of Earth and its atmosphere that contains all ecosystems and on which living organisms exist. The biosphere can range from the atmosphere to the ocean depths and from a very cold to a very hot environment. Living things can be found in the atmosphere, the deepest parts of the ocean, and in some areas, in rocks several kilometers below the surface of Earth.
