Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) What is the correct order for the 5 layers of the atmosphere, starting with the lowest layer?
A
thermosphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, troposphere, exosphere
B
troposphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, stratosphere, exosphere
C
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
D
stratosphere, exosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, troposphere
2) What is in the stratosphere and one molecule of it is made up of 3 oxygen atoms? It absorbs UV radiation.
A
x-ray layer
B
microwave layer
C
ozone layer
D
heat layer
3) What is the process in which warm air rises, then cools, then sinks, then gets warm again and the process starts over?
A
conduction
B
convection
C
radiation
D
advection
4) As air pressure decreases, we can expect warmer weather. Why?
A
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
B
A higher temperature means the particles are closer together and therefore under lower pressure.
C
A higher temperature means the particles are moving slower and therefore under lower pressure.
D
Because when air pressure decreases, the particles hit each other more often, therefore increasing the temperature.

A
convection
B
radiation
C
conduction
D
absorption

A
direct
B
primary
C
secondary
D
main
9) This is the layer of the atmosphere were we live. It is also the densest layer.
A
troposphere
B
ionosphere
C
stratosphere
D
thermosphere
10) As you go higher in the thermosphere, what happens to the temperature?
