What is another name for the troposphere?
Aerospace, the troposphere is 110 miles thick in the equator and 6 miles thick in the polar regions. It could also be called atmosphere, there are different types of atmosphere- troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere and thermosphere the hottest part of our atmosphere- which is quite peculiar since the high you get the colder it is. The stratosphere also contains the 'ozone layer' which is now depleted repetitively by CFC (chloro, fluoro, carbon).
What is the name of the layer of earth's atmosphere?
Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere are 5 layers of earth's atmosphere.
What is the upper portion of the thermosphere called?

What layer of atmosphere extends 50 - 85 km above earth's surface?
There are several names, depending on what properties you want to stress. The Thermosphere ranges from about 80km to 500km. Here the 'temperature' goes up to 1500°C - but the molecules have such rare collisions, that speaking of a gas is somehow wrong. This name is used if you speak about the thermal structure of the atmosphere. That region might also be called ionosphere (>50km). By that name you stress, that molecules are ionized by radiation. Also this layer is called heterosphere(>100km) (above the turbopause). Here you stress that no turbulence occurs any more and therefore the atosphere doesn't mix. regarding your category 'animal life' - there is no such life up there.
Where is the mesosphere located?
The mesosphere is the layer of Earth's atmosphere above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere. It extends from 50 kilometers to 100 kilometers above sea level. The name mesphere also, though less often, refers to a layer of Earth's mantle between the asthenosphere and the outer core. It extends from 660 kilometers to 2,700 kilometers below the surface.
What is the name of the layer of the atmosphere that has the ozone?
The layer of atmosphere is stratosphere. It is the second layer to troposphere.
What is the name of large homogeneous portion of the atmosphere?
The Ionosphere or Mesosphere, both extending for hundreds of kilometers
What is the name for the coldest point in the atmosphere?
The coldest point in the atmosphere is known as the tropopause. This boundary separates the troposphere and the stratosphere, and temperatures can drop significantly as you move higher into the stratosphere.
What is the name of the air layers?
The layers are present in stratosphere. These are troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere.
What is another name for ionosphere?
Another name for the ionosphere is the thermosphere.
Name the parts of the atmosphere?
Nitrogen (about 78.084%), oxygen (about 20.9476%), Argon (about 0.934%). Trace amounts of Neon, Helium, Krypton, Hydrogen, and Iodine. There are also other compounds such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, but these don't count as elements. Primarily Oxygen & Nitrogen and other rare gasses.
What is the other name for ionosphere?
The other name for ionosphere is thermosphere.
What other layer is found in the stratosphere?
The stratosphere is a layer in atmosphere. It contains another layer within it. The name of that layer is ozone layer.
The ozone is part of what layer?
The ozone layer is a part of another layer within it. The name of the layer is Stratosphere in atmosphere.
Name the different layers of atmosphere?
The layers of the Earth's atmosphere, from closest to farthest from the surface, are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. Each layer has unique characteristics and plays a specific role in the Earth's atmosphere.
It contains a gas noted for having a sharp clean smell?
Stratosphere is the layer of atmosphere which contains the gas noted for having sharp clean smell. The name of the gas is ozone and is present as ozone layer in the atmosphere.
On what basis is the ionosphere named?
The ionosphere is named based on the fact that it is a region of Earth's atmosphere where ions and free electrons exist due to incoming solar radiation. These charged particles play a crucial role in reflecting radio waves and facilitating long-distance communication.
