What are pollutants that are put directly in our atmosphere?
primary
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
conduction
it increases
ozone layer
Environmental Protection Agency
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
traps thermal energy (heat).
What is the correct order for the 5 layers of the atmosphere, starting with the lowest layer?
primary
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
conduction
it increases
ozone layer
Environmental Protection Agency
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
traps thermal energy (heat).
What is in the stratosphere and one molecule of it is made up of 3 oxygen atoms? It absorbs UV radiation.
primary
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
conduction
it increases
ozone layer
Environmental Protection Agency
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
traps thermal energy (heat).
If you walk on hot sand, the heat is transferred from the sand to your feet through what process?
primary
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
conduction
it increases
ozone layer
Environmental Protection Agency
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
traps thermal energy (heat).
As you go higher in the thermosphere, what happens to the temperature?
primary
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
conduction
it increases
ozone layer
Environmental Protection Agency
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
traps thermal energy (heat).
As air pressure decreases, we can expect warmer weather. Why?
primary
