Cards (18)

  • Atmosphere is made up of gases that sorrounds the earth
  • The Atmosphere is mostly made up with 78 percent nitrogen
  • Troposphere is the most lowest and thinnest layer of earth where weather occurs
  • Boundary between Stratosphere andTroposphere is the tropopause
  • Stratosphere is the layer where there is no weather occurs and the layer with high level of ozone
  • The Upper body of Stratosphere is the Stratopause
  • Ozone layer absorbs the UV radiation from the sun
  • Mesosphere is where gases are less dense and mostly where meteors burn up in this layer.
  • A meteoroid is outside Earth
  • Meteors are in the Atmosphere of Earth
  • Meteorite is where meteors land
  • In Thermosphere altitude increases with temperature so the temp can reach 1500
  • Ionosphere is the area of the upper mesosphere and the thermosphere
  • Auroras or Northern lights happens in the layer of Ionosphere
  • The outermost layer of the atmosphere is the Thermosphere
  • Thermosphere is where you can find satellites and space stations.
  • The uppermost region of Earth's atmosphere is the Exosphere as it gradually fades into the vacuum
  • The Exosphere gradually holds helium and hydrogen \
