How does the angle at which sunlight strikes earth surface affect the intensity of the sunlight?
The more acute the angle at which the sunlight strikes, the more atmosphere that sunlight must pass through. Passing through more atmosphere will weaken and dim the light beams. As the angle at which sunlight hits the earth changes, the same amount of sunlight is spread over different areas, so that near the poles each area of surface receives less intense radiation than an equivalent area near the poles.
What is the Photosphere on the sun?
The Sun's photosphere is the layer of the Sun that is very visible and it usually produces most of the sunlight.
Which layer does de-encapsulation first occur?
It first occurs at the application layer.
Which layer of the sun do sunspots occur on?
I believe that the layer in which sun spots occur would be the chromosphere. The chromosphere is the second layer in the sun's atmosphere and is about 2,000km above the photosphere(the first layer).
What is the trotosphere?
The Troposphere is a layer of the first layer of the atmosphere. It is about right above the clouds.
Why is the thermosphere hot?
The thermosphere is so hot because sunlight strikes this layer of the atmosphere first.
What layer of the atmosphere is first struck by sunlight?
The exosphere is the layer of the atmosphere first struck by sunlight
What layer of the rainforest sunlight that filters eighty percent of sunlight?
The Canopy layer
What strikes the equator more directly?
sunlight
Why does the bottom layer of the rainforest receive less sunlight than the top layer?
Because the leaves and branches of the top layer block sunlight from reaching the bottom layer.
When sunlight strikes chlorophyll the cell can make food for the?
plant
What positive results occur because of lightning strikes?
Lightning is known to create nitrogen oxides. These chemicals can react with others in sunlight to produce ozone which will help to rebuild and replenish our thinning ozone layer.
Describe what happens when sunlight strikes chlorophyll?

What are some keywords for ozone layer?

The deciduous forest layer that gets the least sunlight is the?
Forest floorThe deciduous forest layer that gets the least sunlight is the forest floor.
How does polar ice that sunlight strikes help reduce global warming?
When sunlight strikes polar ice much of it is reflected back into space. This, called the albedo effect, slows global warming. When the ice melts the sun strikes the dark water, which absorbs heat much better
What is the layer of the sun from which sunlight comes?
The Photosphere
