Explain why earths troposphere is mainly heated from the ground up?

The Earth's troposphere is mainly heated from the ground up because the Earth's surface absorbs more sunlight than the atmosphere, causing it to warm up. This warmth is then transferred to the air immediately above the ground through conduction and convection, creating a temperature gradient with the surface being warmer than the higher altitudes.
