What is the process in which warm air rises, then cools, then sinks, then gets warm again and the process starts over?
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
conduction
traps thermal energy (heat).
it increases
troposphere
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
primary
As air pressure decreases, we can expect warmer weather. Why?
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
conduction
traps thermal energy (heat).
it increases
troposphere
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
primary
If you walk on hot sand, the heat is transferred from the sand to your feet through what process?
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
conduction
traps thermal energy (heat).
it increases
troposphere
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere

What is the correct order for the 5 layers of the atmosphere, starting with the lowest layer?
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
conduction

What are pollutants that are put directly in our atmosphere?
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
conduction
traps thermal energy (heat).

troposphere
troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
primary
A greenhouse gas

This is the layer of the atmosphere were we live. It is also the densest layer.
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.

As you go higher in the thermosphere, what happens to the temperature?
convection
A higher temperature means the particles are moving faster,more spread out,less dense,and therefore under low pressure.
