Mountains are typically found in the lithosphere, the outer layer of the Earth that includes the crust and the upper part of the mantle. The formation of mountains is often associated with tectonic plate movements and interactions, such as when plates collide, causing rock to be forced upwards to form mountain ranges.

The first layer of the earths atmosphere touching earths surf?

The first layer of the Earth's atmosphere is called the troposphere, and it is in direct contact with the Earth's surface. This layer is where weather events occur and where most of the Earth's clouds and precipitation are found. Temperature usually decreases with altitude in the troposphere.
