Is the exosphere the thickest layer of the atmosphere?
no!!!! thinnest! This question is ambiguous. If by thickest you mean densest, then the answer is no, the exosphere is very tenuous. If you mean having the greatest distance from bottom to top, the answer is yes.
What does ozone layer mean in the atmosphere?
Ozone layer means life to atmosphere. It protects all of it.
What is the first layer of atmosphere within the five miles above the earth surface?
That depends on what you mean by the "first" layer. The lowest layer (the first off the ground) is the Troposphere. The highest layer (the first coming in from space) is the Exosphere.
What is the name of the thin layer that surrounds earth?
If you mean, thin layer of air, or thin gaseous layer surrounding the earth then the answer is; Atmosphere. But if not, then the other thin layer of earth is; The crust, but its a solid layer.
What does 'atmosphere' mean?
The meaning is related to the atmosphere.
What does Troposphere mean?
Troposphere is a layer of the atmosphere where life takes place.Troposphere, then Stratosphere, then Mesosphere, then Thermosphere.

What does the word thermosphere mean in science?
noun the region of the upper atmosphere in which temperature increases continuously with altitude, encompassing essentially all of the atmosphere above the mesosphere.
What is the outer layer of the thermospherer?
The exosphere is the outermost layer of the atmosphere, if that is what you mean.
What is a armosphere?
I think you mean atmosphere. Anyway an atmosphere is the layer of the air[ which is upper Earth].
What is the name of the middle layer of the sun's atmosphere?
Considering the solar atmosphere to have three layers (photosphere, chromosphere, and corona), the "middle" would be the chromosphere.
Three main parts of the atmosphere are the?
if you mean chemically its Oxygen 29%ish, Nitrogen 70%ish, 1% argon and other trace elements Or the Thermosphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere, in that order from the earth's surface, but there are more than 3
What does the pefix meso in the word mesosphere mean?
The prefix meso in the word mesosphere means middle. The mesosphere is actually the atmospheric layer between the stratosphere and thermosphere.
What is the name of the thin layer that surrounds the earth?
If you mean, thin layer of air, or thin gaseous layer surrounding the earth then the answer is; Atmosphere. But if not, then the other thin layer of earth is; The crust, but its a solid layer.
What does strato mean in stratosphere?
The strato in stratosphere means layer. Strato is a Latin term that means sheet or layer. The stratosphere is the second highest layer in the atmosphere and is above the troposphere.
What is the outermost layer of sun known as?
The outermost layer of the Sun, if you mean the surface, is called the photosphere. If you mean in the atmosphere, it is called the chromosphere which can only be observed on the day of a solar eclipse. Beyond that there is a very tenuous layer called the corona. I think that's the "outermost layer".
