There are five basic layers of the Earth, being the crust, upper mantle, inner mantle, outer core, and inner core. Of these, the lithosphere is composed of the crust and upper mantle, and the asthenosphere is part of the mantle, below the lithosphere.
The atmospheric layer closest to Earth's crust is the troposphere. It extends from the surface of the Earth up to about 8 to 15 kilometers (5 to 9 miles) in altitude, depending on latitude and weather conditions. This layer is where most of the Earth's weather occurs and contains approximately 75% of the atmosphere's mass.
The magic 8 ball says: "My sources say No." No one knows where that particular "feature" is going. The record largest ozone hole was 2007, and the ozone hole for 2008 was not much smaller. The amount of UV-B that arrives at Earth's surface varies by year, and by 11 year solar cycle. Effects that are believed to be closely tied to the amount of UV-B that arrives on Earth's surface show a long-term upward trend. Plants absorb water vapor, and produce oxygen. What we do to plants, we do to the ozone layer (as much as we do anything to the ozone layer).
Google Earth can be downloaded on Windows 8 but more important question is whether it will run on Window 8. In most situations Google Earth will run on Windows 8 but there are some reports of users with problems running on Windows 8 so best to try to install GE and see if it works correctly or not. Note that Google has not officially listed Windows 8 as a supported platform for running Google Earth. If the normal download page fails to download Google Earth then try the direct download page (found in the related links below). Also at present Google Earth is a 32-bit application so it doesn't take advantage of the all the computers memory. 32-bit apps are limited to 2 GB of memory. A future release of Google Earth v7 will most likely be more stable on Window 8 at which time Google will officially announce Windows 8 is supported
The standard thickness of a typical interior sheetrocked wall is 4 1/2" and 4 3/4" thick. Most apartments are built with a sheet of 1/2" or 5/8" GWB on each side of a 2x4 which is actually 3 1/2" wide.
Even though there are 92 elements that are naturally found, only eight of them are common in the rocks that make up the Earth's outer layer, the crust. Together, these 8 elements make up more than 98% of the crust. The 8 most common elements in Earth's crust (by mass): 46.6% Oxygen (O) 27.7% Silicon (Si) 8.1% Aluminum (Al) 5.0% Iron (Fe) 3.6% Calcium (Ca) 2.8% Sodium (Na) 2.6% Potassium (K) 2.1% Magnesium
This layer is about 163 miles thick below the earth.
The thickness of the Earth's anthesphere, or innermost layer of the atmosphere, ranges from approximately 8 to 16 kilometers (5 to 10 miles) thick. It is where weather events occur and it is characterized by a decrease in temperature with increasing altitude.
The thick outer layer of a plant cell is called the cell wall... 8) A.I
Virtually all of earths aluminum ore is in the top layer of the earth, the crust.
The troposphere, the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, contains about 90% of the Earth's atmosphere. This layer extends from the Earth's surface to about 8-15 kilometers above sea level.
The ozone layer is located about 10 to 30 kilometers (6 to 19 miles) above the Earth's surface. The thickness of the ozone layer can vary due to factors like time of day and location, but on average it is around 3 millimeters thick.
The stratosphere is the layer of the atmosphere that averages about 8 miles above the Earth's surface. This layer contains the ozone layer, which helps to absorb and block harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
The lowermost layer of Earth's atmosphere is the troposphere. It is where most of the Earth's weather occurs, and its height can vary from 5 to 9 miles (8 to 14.5 kilometers) above the Earth's surface.
The layer closest to the Earth's surface is the troposphere. This is where weather phenomena and air movements occur, and it extends up to about 8-15 kilometers above the Earth's surface, varying in height depending on the location and weather conditions.
The majority of Earth's air is found in the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of the atmosphere extending about 8 to 15 kilometers above the Earth's surface. About 75% of the total mass of the atmosphere is located in this layer.
It appears there may be a typo in your question. Did you mean "troposphere"? The troposphere is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere and is where most weather occurs. It is approximately 8 to 15 kilometers (5 to 9 miles) thick and contains the majority of the atmosphere's mass.
The lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, where weather occurs, is called the troposphere. It extends from the Earth's surface up to an average altitude of about 8 to 15 kilometers, varying with latitude and season.
