What is the atmosphere like in mars comparedd to earths?
mars has very thin atmosphere made mostly out of Carbon dioxide(about 95%) and almost no Oxygen (0.2%)
What warms the atmosphere?
Mostly the sun. The sun's heat warms the earth. This heat, in the form of infra-red energy rises into the atmosphere where it is trapped by greenhouse gases. This greenhouse effect warms the atmosphere.
Is are atmosphere mostly oxygen?
no its mostly carbon deoxide
What type of energy enters the Earth's atmosphere from the sun?
The energy Earth receives from the Sun is often called solar energy. The rate at which this energy arrives at Earth is about 174 petawatts ( 1 petawatt = 1,000 trillion watts) at the upper atmosphere. About 30% is reflected back to space. The sun energy at the Earth's surface is mostly in the visible and near-infrared ranges with a small amount in the near-ultraviolet.
What does Venus' atmosphere mostly made of?
Mostly made of Carbon Dioxide(Co2).
Was the earths early atmosphere made up of mostly oxygen?
no
What describes the earths atmosphere?
mostly nitrogen with 21% oxygen
What is the current atmosphere of Earth believed to be?
Earths atmosphere is made up mostly of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Is earths atmosphere mostly oxygen and hydrogen?
No, Earth's atmosphere is mostly composed of nitrogen (about 78%) and oxygen (about 21%). Hydrogen makes up a very small fraction of Earth's atmosphere, less than 0.1%.
How does the hydrosphere interact with the atmosphere?
The Hydrosphere is inside of the Atmosphere. The Hydrosphere contains earths water. Mostly were clouds are and precipitation happens.
What would earths atmosphere likely consist mostly of without the presence of life?
c water vapor
Which gases made up most of Earths early atmosphere?

mars has very thin atmosphere made mostly out of Carbon dioxide(about 95%) and almost no Oxygen (0.2%)
What is the earths mostly made up of?
Earth's atmosphere is mostly made up of nitrogen, which makes up 79 percent. The atmosphere contains 20 percent oxygen and 1 percent other gases.
Is energy cycled through the atmosphere?
Yes. Mostly heat energy, some of which becomes wind.
What is outgassing in earth science?
Outgassing is the release of trapped gases from within the earths interior to the earths atmosphere. It also includes outgassing at the smaller scale, such as the mostly porous pumice.
What air do you breath on earth?
Earths atmosphere is mostly nitrogen (78%) and Oxygen (21%).It is the oxygen that is the essential gas for breathing.
