Yes, It also keeps it from getting too cold/hot.
Without the atmostphere the earth would disentigrate within minutes, due to the atmostphere not deflecting the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. All life would instantly burn. And the planet would be rendered un-inhabital.
But, Let's take venus into effect. It's atmostphere has the "Green House Effect". Which causes the suns rays to stay inside and become trapped between the planet and the atmostphere, thus heating the planet for several hundred degrees hot. F*.
What else can I help you with?
What are two main greenhouse gases that keep the planets atmosphere warm and livable?
The two main greenhouse gases that help keep the Earth's atmosphere warm and livable are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O). These gases trap heat from the sun, which helps maintain a stable climate for supporting life on Earth.
How does the amount of gravity on a planet affect the thickness of the atmosphere?
It is not a linear relation but, the larger the planet, the greater the gravity, the more it is able to attract and keep.
What two things keep your atmosphere warm?
The natural greenhouse effect, helped by greenhouse gases and the carbon and water cycles of the earth keep the atmosphere warm. Greenhouse gases keep back some of the sun's heat so it doesn't radiate back out to space. This has kept the earth warm for millions of years.
What factors keep the planets in orbit?
Gravity and inertia
Why do planets are always in orbit?
to keep gravity going
Do any of the planets have a atmosphere?
Yes. Venus has an atmosphere. The atmosphere is so thick and full of green-house gasses, we could not see the surface. The green-house gasses keep it very hot on the surface, as well.
Does the moon help keep your planets in balance?
No because the gravitation of all the planets keeps it in balance
How do greenhouse gases help keep the surface of the earth warm by absorbing heat emitted by the sun?
Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun, allowing some of it to be absorbed by the Earth's surface. This process helps to keep the surface of the Earth warm by preventing the heat from escaping back into space.
Why do planets need their stars?
Planets need their stars for heat and light, which are essential for supporting life and maintaining stable surface temperatures. Additionally, the gravitational pull of the star helps to keep planets in orbit around it.
Which gases in earths atmosphere help keep surface temperatures warm enough for life?
The main gases in Earth's atmosphere that help keep surface temperatures warm enough for life are carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane. These gases trap heat from the sun in a process known as the greenhouse effect, which helps maintain the planet's temperature within a range suitable for life.
What are two main greenhouse gases that keep the planets atmosphere warm and livable?
The two main greenhouse gases that help keep the Earth's atmosphere warm and livable are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O). These gases trap heat from the sun, which helps maintain a stable climate for supporting life on Earth.
What are the four thing that help atmosphere to keep life possibal?
is life possible on mars
Why do we have planets in Space were we don't live?
Space was born with planets we don't live in like Mars, Sun, And Jupiter. It need other planets to help keep Space alive forever. It can't just have Earth.
What atmospheric gases help to hold around earth?
The main atmospheric gases that help hold the Earth's atmosphere in place are nitrogen and oxygen. These gases are constantly present in the atmosphere and provide the necessary pressure to keep the atmosphere close to Earth's surface. Additionally, small amounts of other gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor also contribute to trapping heat and maintaining Earth's temperature.
How does the grivity effect the planets and moons?
Gravity helps to keep the planets in orbit. It also helps to keep the moon's close to the planets.
How does the absence of an atmosphere affect the Moon's surface temperature?
Well, atmospheres help absorb heat, so it traps in heat from the sun to make it warmer, so the absence of an atmosphere on the moon affects it by making it cooler because without an atmosphere, there is no way to trap in and keep heat.
How does the planets' distances from the sun affect their atmosphere?
The distance from the sun affects a planet's atmosphere by influencing its temperature and composition. Planets closer to the sun tend to have hotter temperatures, leading to more volatile gases evaporating and potentially thinner atmospheres. On the other hand, planets farther from the sun have colder temperatures, which can result in more stable atmospheres with heavier gases.
