Answer:
The First layer is the troposphere. The troposphere is what we live in. It creates weather for us. Second layer is the Stratosphere. You will find the ozone layer in it. The ozone layer helps protect us from ultraviolet radiation (UV) from the sun. In fact, the ozone layer absorbs most of the UV radiation the sun sends to us. Life as we know it wouldn't be possible without this layer of protection. Third layer is Mesosphere. The Mesosphere is very important for earth's protection. The mesosphere burns up most meteors and asteroids before they are able to reach the earth's surface. Fourth layer is Thermosphere. The Thermosphere absorbs the sun radiation making it very hot.
Explanation: I don't know if you include this one but the fifth layer is the Exosphere. Although the exosphere is the most distance layer of earth's atmosphere it is the layer that is the planet's first line of defense against the sun's rays. It is also the first layer to come into contact and protect the earth from meteors, asteroids, and cosmic rays.
Answer:
Explanation:
The really interesting characteristic of the atmosphere is that each layer has a different temperature range. That is truly incredible when you list them.
The first layer is the troposphere. It is the layer closest to the earth's surface. It is 12 km high and goes from 15oC to - 56oC
The next layer is the Stratosphere. It is 38 km above the Troposphere and the temperature goes from -56 to -2.5
The third layer is Mesosphere. It is 40 km above the Stratosphere and the temperature goes from -2.5 to -86.5
The next layer is the Thermosphere. It is 710 km above the Mesosphere. It goes from - 86.5 to 1200o C So this goes from - 100 roughly to + 1200. That is a massive distance. It speaks wonders of how balanced this planet really is.
The final layer is the Exosphere. It goes up to 3000 km. The temperature is consistently at 1200oC
What I don't understand is how you get the layers from a 13 answer of something. What is the first name of the particle? That would seem to have nothing to do with this answer. Please explain because this was a good deal of work that might be for nothing. Mind you the answer is very interesting.
