The biosphere (biospheric) is a broad term that decribes living organisms and their [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Environment environment], it usually found as one of the four [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Element elements] that decribe the earth:

* the [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Lithosphere lithosphere]
* the biosphere
* the [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Hydrosphere hydrosphere]
* the [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Atmosphere atmosphere]

It has similarities with ecosphere which describes the global [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Ecosystem ecosystem] and is the portion of the [https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Atmosphere atmosphere] in which it is possible to breathe naturally.
