Enumerate and describe the 5 layers of atmosphere?

Answer 1

The 5 layers of the atmosphere are the Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and the Exosphere. Troposphere is closest to earth...its also where we live,stratosphere is where our equator is located, mesosphere is the coldest of them all, thermosphere is the hottest, and then the exosphere is farthest from the earth.

Answer 2

The five layers are, in order from the surface, troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and the exosphere. Weather occurs in the troposphere, jets fly in the stratosphere, meteors burn up in the mesosphere, auroras occur in the thermosphere, and the atmosphere merges into space in the exosphere.

Answer 3

1. Troposphere: This is the lowest layer of the atmosphere where weather occurs, containing most of the Earth's clouds and precipitation.

2. Stratosphere: Above the troposphere, this layer contains the ozone layer which helps absorb UV radiation from the sun.

3. Mesosphere: The layer above the stratosphere where meteors burn up upon entering the Earth's atmosphere.

4. Thermosphere: This layer experiences high temperatures but does not feel hot due to the low density of particles. It is where the International Space Station orbits.

5. Exosphere: The outermost layer of the atmosphere where gases gradually thin out and transition into outer space. Satellites orbit in this layer.
