What else can I help you with?
Why is the air thinner at the top of a mountain?
The closer you are to the edge of the atmosphere, the denser air gets. That's why mountain climbers find it difficult to breathe, as there is less oxygen in the air up there.
Why is the temperature on the surface of Jupiter much lower than that on earth?
The "Surface" of Jupiter is hard to define as it is a gas giant but the top of the atmosphere (however you want ti define that) is cold due to heat radiating into space. Jupiter is so much farther from the Sun than Earth is, the Sun cannot heat Jupiter's atmosphere. And the heat form the interior (it is actually hotter than the surface of the Sun deep inside Jupiter!) dissipates into space.
What runs along the top of the troposphere.?
The stratosphere which contains most of the atmosphere's ozone.
Which elements comprise the largest fraction in the composition of the atmosphere?
The top 2 are nitrogen and oxygen.
Why is it more difficult to breath at the top of a mountain?
This is due to the thinness of the atmosphere at high altitudes (e.g. the top of a mountain). The thinness is caused by the loss of molecules to space due to the slight lessening of gravity's pull at high altitudes.
What is the best way to top yourself?
define top and define your definition of best.

Where can you see the atmosphere clearly?
You can usually see the atmosphere clearly during the day time. And, only if you are on top of a high surface, such as a mountain top.
How does the atmosphere differs at the top to the bottom?
the air gets thinner as you get nearer the top.
What is the top layer of earths atmosphere called?
The top layer of Earth's atmosphere is called the exosphere. It is the outermost layer where the atmosphere transitions into space. The exosphere is very thin and composed mostly of low-density gases.
What is the difference between a proper fraction and an improper fraction?
In an improper fraction the absolute value of the numerator (the top) is bigger than the absolute value of the denominator. An improper fraction is also called a top-heavy fraction.
How do you make your way to the top and become absolute monarch in Europe?
You're born.
What layer in the atmosphere is the top portion of the troposphere?
The troposphere is the portion of the atmosphere closest to earth. It is below the stratosphere.
What layer in the atmosphere is in the top portion of the troposphere?
The troposphere is the portion of the atmosphere closest to earth. It is below the stratosphere.
Which part of the atmosphere has the smallest distance from the bottom to the top of its zone?
If you're talking about the thinnest layer of the atmosphere, then it is the EXOSPHERE..
How do you define the numerator and denominator of a fraction?
The numerator is the top number; the denominator is the bottom number.
