The atmosphere is NOT again I repeat NOT a layer.
The layers are the exosphere, the thermosphere, the ionosphere, the mesosphere, the stratosphere, the ozonesphere, and the troposphere.

∙ 9y agoThe troposphere is the atmospheric layer closest to the planet and contains the largest percentage of the mass of the total atmosphere. It is characterized by the density of its air and an average vertical temperature change of 6 degrees Celsius per Kilometer.

∙ 15y agogravity is what holds the layers of the atmosphere close to the earth

∙ 13y agothere is no layer called atmosphere there are layers of the atmosphere.

I Heard My Science Teacher Say That It Was The Exosphere But Dont Trust Me XD

Which layer do light gases escape earths gravity?
Earth's lighter gases such as Hydrogen and Helium will rise to the top of the atmosphere. Since they are very light, they will easily be knocked awry by the solar wind, the stream of charged particles coming from the Sun.
What shield body from ultraviolet radiation?
ozonospherein terms of space it is called the ozone layer
Is gas gravity the same as specific gravity?
There is indeed a relationship between gravity and atmospheric pressure. Gravity attracts matter with mass, in this case gas. The atmosphere being a layer of gas, the stronger the gravity, the higher it's pressure. I if you seal gas in a tank, and increase its mass (by adding more gas) the pressure will increase. Now imagine that the tank is the earth, and gravity is exerting a down force on the gas... It's like water. Although it can't be compressed, water exerts pressure because of gravity; the deeper you go the higher the pressure. Now imagine the atmosphere pressure on Jupiter....
Which planet does not have enough gravity to have an atmosphere?
Nercury
Why does Air stay within the Atmosphere - solid and liquid are pulled by gravity BUT i don't agree Air is pulled by gravity?
First of all, the atmosphere is the air. Secondly, air is matter, all matter is affected by gravity. Imagine this: the sea is liquid, it lies on the earth, pulled by gravity. the atmosphere is also like this except it is a "sea" of air, it lies on the earth, pulled by gravity.
Does the ozone layer keep in the gravity?
Yes, it does. It is maintained by gravity in atmosphere.
What planet contains a five layer atmosphere?
Earth contains a five layer atmosphere. It is due to gravity.
What force holds the layer of the atmosphere to the earth?
Gravity.
What layer has gravity on the sun's atmosphere?
inner core radition
Which layer of the atmosphere has increasing temperature?
bec. of the gravity of the earth
Which layer of the atmosphere loses atoms and molecules due to weak gravity?
Exosphere
Why ozone layer does not leave the earth?
Ozone layer is a pool of ozone molecules in the atmosphere. It does not leave earth because of gravity.
Can the atmosphere kill you?
The atmosphere, by definition, refers to any gaseous layer around a physical body with enough mass/gravity to hold said layer. The atmosphere of Earth is essential to life and cannot kill you.Going where there is not enough atmosphere can injure or kill you
What two layers of the atmosphere protect you?
The ozone layer protects us from UV rays. The mesosphere protects from the asteroids.
Which layer from the atmosphere is in risk?
A layer in atmosphere is at risk. The layer is ozone layer.
Which layer do light gases escape earths gravity?
Earth's lighter gases such as Hydrogen and Helium will rise to the top of the atmosphere. Since they are very light, they will easily be knocked awry by the solar wind, the stream of charged particles coming from the Sun.
What is the layer of the atmosphere?
The ozone layer is in the stratosphere. It is one of the layer of atmosphere.
