What else can I help you with?
What layer of the atmosphere do oxygen and nitrogen atoms absorb energy from the sun?
Oxygen and nitrogen atoms in the Earth's atmosphere absorb energy from the sun in the thermosphere. This is the layer of the atmosphere that experiences the highest temperatures due to the absorption of solar radiation.
What is the source the ozone layer?
Oxygen in the atmosphere, and UV-C from the Sun.
What is the atmospher of Mercury?
In order to have an atmosphere, you need oxygen, as we define an atmosphere. Having that said, mercury does not have an atmosphere, due to the proximity of the sun.
Does air come from the sun?
No. Earth's atmosphere most likely originate from volcanic atmosphere. The oxygen is produced by plants.
Why are nitrogen oxygen and ozone needed in the atmosphere?
They are very vital in atmosphere. They protects us from harmful UV rays of the sun.
Which component of the biosphere contains oxygen that you breathe as well as oxygen that protects us from radiation?
The atmosphere in the biosphere contains the oxygen that we breathe. The ozone layer, also part of the atmosphere, is responsible for protecting us from harmful radiation from the sun by absorbing most of the sun's ultraviolet radiation.
How could cyanobacteria have survived to be responsible for creating an oxygen atmosphere?
They obtained inexhaustible energy from the sun.
Does the sun's atmosphere consist of oxygen?
The Sun consists mainly of hydrogen and helium. That should include the atmosphere. In a way, the Sun only consists of atmosphere; it doesn't have a surface where you can step on.The Sun consists mainly of hydrogen and helium. That should include the atmosphere.

Is there air on the sun or gases in the atmosphere?
The Sun is mostly composed of hydrogen and helium gases, with small amounts of other elements. It does not have the same gases found in Earth's atmosphere, like oxygen and nitrogen. The Sun's atmosphere consists of different layers, such as the photosphere, chromosphere, and corona.
Name the gas that naturally occurs in the air and screens out harmful rays from the sun?
Ozone (O3) forms from oxygen (O2) in the upper atmosphere and screens out most of the ultraviolet radiation from the Sun.
Properties of the Earth which makes it beneficial to life?
The distance from the sun is 'just right' - and it has an oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere.
Which properties are most important to sustaining life on Earth?
distance from Sun, surface temperature, and atmosphere of oxygen
