An atmosphere allows for regulated temperature and with out regulated temperature life cannot stabilize and we would not be able to form life in the first place. Also it allows for certain chemical compounds to form and that allows life to exist.

The sequence of conditions through which water passes in the atmosphere and on Earth's surface is called the?
Water cycle is correct!
The two atmospheric conditions are required to produce thunderstorms?
Thunderstorms can happen if the air near the Earth's surface is warm and moist and the atmosphere is unstable
Part of tge earths atmosphere closest to its surface?
The part of the earth's atmosphere that is closest to its surface is known as the troposphere.
Why is the atmosphere near the earth's surface densest?
The mass of the atmosphere compresses the atmosphere and it is most compressed near the earth's surface where the entire height of the atmosphere is above it.
How does the water move from Earth's surface to the atmosphere?
how did water from the earth's surface get into the atmosphere
What do you call the heating of the surface of a planet due to the presence of an atmosphere that traps heat witin its surface?
I believe the answer you are looking for is "The Greenhouse Effect."
Why can some am broadcasts be heard for great distances under certain conditions?
AM radio waves bounce off the ionosphere. Favorable weather conditions and lack of sunspot activity enhance the waves' ability to bounce between the earth's surface and atmosphere, allowing the broadcast to travel a greater distance.
How would you tell that a planet or a moon had no atmosphere just by looking at the surface?
If there are lots of craters, it means there is no significant atmosphere. The reason is that any craters will be eroded eventually, by the presence of an atmosphere.
What is the purpose of the exploration of Mars?
To study and explore the Martian surface, atmosphere, and general conditions.
Why a rainbow is never formed on the surface of the moon?
A rainbow requires the presence of an atmosphere with droplets of water suspended in it. The moon has neither of those.
Is there presence of water oxygen on mars?
There is ice beneath the surface of Mara and at its polar caps. The atmosphere contains small amounts of oxygen.
Is the moon have a atmosphere?
Not that you would notice. The moon lost it's atmosphere long ago- not enough gravity. Conditions on the surface are pretty much pure vacuum.
What does the presence of dunes indicate about conditions on a planet or moon?
Dunes on the surface of a planet indicates it has loose sand being blown by wind.
What were the conditions like on the early Earth?

What is the atmosphere on the surface of Venus's?
The atmosphere on the surface of Venus is cloudy.
What is space weather and how does it affect Earth?
The term "space weather" refers to conditions on the surface of the Sun that ultimately affect Earth and its atmosphere.
Why is earths atmosphere so different from those of mars and Venus?
Venus' surface conditions are different because of the atmosphere that venus has. Its atmosphere is mostly Co2 which is a greenhouse gas. This greenhouse gas allows the suns warmth to penetrate to the surface, but is unable to reflect back out into space. Therefor The heat is trapped between the atmosphere and the surface. Because of this the surface temperature of the Venus is a sweltering 860 degrees Fahrenheit.
