A) The event that had occurred in Nicaragua was a earthquake off the coast of the country back in 1992 September 2. The earthquake had caused a tsunami which killed 116 people and several others were injured. The earthquake lasted about 0:16 seconds which was followed by several strong aftershocks. Most of the people that were killed, were children with more than 68 people missing. It also left 13,500 homeless. Also at least 1,300 houses and 185 fishing boats were destroyed. Along the west coast of the country. The total cost of the damage was about 30 million U.S dollars. B). Well the lithosphere had caused the earthquake, which affected the hydrosphere, which created the tsunami. Then the tsunami hit land, which affected biosphere by destroying homes, trees, fishing boats and killing 116 people.
C). The spheres interacted by a ripple effect because the lithosphere disturbed the hydrosphere, which causes destruction to the biosphere. That is how the spheres interacted.
