Different layers have different function in the atmosphere. For example the stratosphere protects from UV rays.

What is an important fact of each layer of an atmosphere?

Troposphere: Contains most of Earth's weather and is where all life on Earth exists. Stratosphere: Contains the ozone layer that protects Earth from harmful UV radiation. Mesosphere: Where most meteoroids burn up upon entering Earth's atmosphere. Thermosphere: Contains the ionosphere, key for radio communication and auroras. Exosphere: Gradually transitions into outer space.


What layer of earth's atmosphere merges into outer space?

The layer of Earth's atmosphere that merges into outer space is known as the exosphere. This is the outermost layer of the atmosphere where gas molecules are so sparse that they can travel long distances without colliding with each other.


What are the names of the spheres that correspond to the outer edge of each layer of the atmosphere?

The layer of atmosphere closest to the earth's surface is troposphere. The next layer is stratosphere which contains the ozone layer. After that comes the mesosphere, Ionosphere n exosphere.


What does the ozone layer do to the other layers in earth's atmosphere?

There is no interaction of ozone layer with other layers. All of them are independent of each other.


What contribution does each layer of the atmosphere make in sustaining life on Earth?

Atmosphere makes huge efforts. It is the one because of which life sustains.


Why are the layers of earth important?

Different layers of atmosphere protect us. They do it by blocking the unwanted radiations of the sun.


Why does the kind of gas in each layer affect the temperature of that layer?

The composition of gases in each layer affects temperature because different gases have varying abilities to absorb and retain heat. For example, greenhouse gases in the lower atmosphere trap heat, resulting in warmer temperatures near the surface. Conversely, the upper atmosphere is cooler because there is less gas to trap and retain heat.


What is the outer layer of the thermospherer?

The outer layer of the thermosphere is called the exosphere. It is the outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere and extends beyond the thermosphere. The exosphere is where gas particles are extremely sparse and can travel long distances without colliding with each other.


what are the list of layers in the atmosphere?

The layers of the atmosphere, from lowest to highest, are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. Each layer has distinct characteristics and plays a different role in Earth's atmosphere.


What are the planets in your solar system's atmosphere?

The solar system doesn't have an atmosphere, it occupies a piece of space which is an empty vacuum. Each planet may have its own atmosphere, a layer of gas at the surface.
