What would be the result if the atmosphere was unable to move and exchange gases with earth's other spheres?

There are four Earth's spheres: the geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere.

The spheres interact with one other. For example, plants (biosphere) produce oxygen (atmosphere) from carbon dioxide (atmosphere).

Substances in different spheres are recycled and turned into other phases and forms. This is important cycle and without that, there is no life on Earth.

oxygen, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.

they're all from the same group as sulfur (group 16).
