The '''Biosphere''', also known as '''Sector 1''', is a simulated-environment sector of the [[Bottle Ship]] and is the first such sector [[Samus Aran]] explores. Like the other simulated-environment sectors, the [[Sector 2 (Cryosphere)|Cryosphere]] and the [[Sector 3 (Pyrosphere)|Pyrosphere]], the Biosphere's environment is interspersed with mechanical rooms and structures. It, also like them, is housed in a dome-shaped area and is divided into four blocks.<ref>{{cite|The first such atmosphere is BIOSPHERE, designed to sustain organisms from warm and humid habitats. The structure of each sector is centered primarily on a cavernous dome. In order to maintain the structural integrity of the whole within the limits of material strength, each dome structure is divided into 4 blocks, for a total of 12.|Exam Center computer|Metroid: Other M}}</ref> A lush, jungle environment, it is home to many varieties of flora and fauna and has an abundant supply of water, thanks to waterfalls and frequent bouts of rain. Vines choke certain corridors, and one room even contains a massive tree that is covered with large, interlocking vines and serves as the basis for a spiraling ramp. It is unique among the Bottle Ship's sectors in that its environment can be switched on and off via terminals scattered throughout, a feature that is necessary to reach certain areas.
