1. lithosphere(land),hydrosphere(water),biosphere(living things)and atmosphere(air)

2. weather is what the conditions of the atmosphere are over a short period of time 
climate is how the atmosphere ¨behaves¨ over a relatively long period´s of time

3 miami and the things that would  affect the climate are vegetation, nearby water, etc.

4. The greenhouse effect is the name scientists have given to the Earth's ability to retain heat.

Global warming is an increase in the Earth's overall temperature, and scientists attribute this increase to the greenhouse 

5. Standing at 6,288 feet, New Hampshire’s Mount Washington is the highest peak in the northeastern United States. Originally called Agiocochook by native Americans, the mountain boasts some of the planet’s most severe weather.

1.
•lithosphere: “rock sphere” the ground you are standing on
•hydrosphere: “water sphere” all lakes, rivers, oceans of earth
•cryosphere: “icy cold sphere” frozen parts of earth (glaciers, icebergs, icecaps)
•biosphere: “life sphere” living things (humans, animals, plants, even viruses)
•atmosphere: “air sphere” air that surrounds the earth
•exo-/ celestial sphere: “outside or heavenly sphere” whole universe beyond the atmosphere (planets, stars, asteroids, dust/meteors)

2.
weather: conditions of the atmosphere within a short period of time

climate: conditions of atmosphere over a long period of time

3.
the place is for you to decide but factors can be:
nearness to water
mountainous? / elevation
nearness to the equator / latitude
vegetation
winds
nearness to the equator
latitude
elevation
vegetation
winds

4.
global warming: change in the earths climate that is causing it to heat up

greenhouse effect: natural process that is happening continuously due to sunlight and the atmosphere

5.
mount washington is a mountain meaning that the temperature is much colder and the winds are stronger (the mountain is in the way of the wind current)
the snow that falls in the winter also stays snow as the temperature is too cold for it to melt

the new hampshire sea coast on the other hand is next to a beach with very low elevation meaning that it is warmer, the water “resorbs” the sun rays which also makes it warmer
