The atmosphere serves several protective functions, including filtering harmful solar radiation, particularly ultraviolet rays, thus shielding living organisms from damage. It also regulates temperature by trapping heat through the greenhouse effect, maintaining a stable climate conducive to life. Additionally, the atmosphere protects the Earth from space debris by burning up smaller meteoroids upon entry, preventing them from reaching the surface. Lastly, it plays a critical role in weather patterns, which helps sustain ecosystems and biodiversity.

Why it is cold at night at moon and hot at day?
The Moon has no protective atmosphere, as Earth does. On Earth, the atmosphere absorbs part of the heat, and moves it around.
How was the early atmosphere different from your atmosphere?
The early Earth's atmosphere was likely composed of gases like carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrogen, and minimal oxygen. It was lacking in oxygen compared to the current atmosphere, which is about 21% oxygen. Additionally, early Earth's atmosphere lacked the protective ozone layer present in our atmosphere today.
What is the protective layer of the atmosphere destroyed by CFC's?
The protective layer of the atmosphere that is destroyed by CFCs is the ozone layer. CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) break down ozone molecules, leading to ozone depletion. This thinning of the ozone layer allows more harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun to reach the Earth's surface, posing risks to human health and the environment.
What kind of atmosphere does Mars have?
Mars has a very thin atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide with traces of nitrogen and argon. It lacks a protective ozone layer, and the atmospheric pressure is about 1% of Earth's. The thin atmosphere contributes to the planet's cold temperatures and makes it unable to support liquid water on its surface.
What is the layer of gases that covers a planet star or moon?
Oh honey, it's called the atmosphere. It's like the planet's own little protective bubble, keeping everything in check. Just like a good hairspray, but for the entire planet.

What planet has a smooth unmarked surface caused by a thick protective atmosphere?
Venus is a planet that has a smooth unmarked surface caused by a thick protective atmosphere. The atmosphere of Venus is mostly carbon dioxide, which is surrounded by sulfuric acid clouds.
What protective part of the earth's atmosphere has holes in it?
