How does air circulate around Earth?

Answer 1

It circulates Earth's surface by heat from the sun.(also you can look it up in the encyclopedia)

Answer 2

The Earth's atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by the Earth's gravity. Dry air contains roughly (by molar content - equivalent to volume, for gases) 78.08% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.038% carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of other gases; but air also contains a variable amount of water vapor, on average around 1%. This mixture of gases is commonly known as air. The atmosphere protects life on Earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation, warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect), and reducing temperature extremes between day and night.

Answer 3

The mixture of gases surrounding the Earth is the Atmosphere.

It is a mixture of Nitrogen (78%), Oxygen (21%) and small amounts of

other gases including argon, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane.

Answer 4

The atmosphere contains many substances. The amount of water in the atmosphere varies greatly depending on heat and pressure differences. Dry air is 78% nitrogen 21% oxygen .94% argon and .035% carbon dioxide There are also smaller amounts of Neon, Helium, methane, Krypton, Hydrogen and nitrogen dioxide and many more.

Answer 5

the basic term is "atmosphere" which loosely defines all of the different layers as the blanket that covers the earth. however each layer has a specific name (ionosphere, troposphere, thermosphere, etc.). there are five layers in total.

Answer 6

The layers of the planet earth are:

crust (which we live on)

mantle (mostly made of magma, makes up most of earths mass)

outer core (dense liquid, very hot)

inner core (dense solid, very hot, supposedly made of iron)

Answer 7

The air that surrounds the earth is called the atmosphere.

Answer 8

Chromosphere Photosphere Corona and the core bunghole

Answer 9

Gravity. The gravity of the Earth holds the atmosphere and keeps it from floating away.

Answer 10

The layers of a star include the corona, the chromosphere, the photosphere, the convective zone, the radiative zone, and the core.
