I've got gas
A mixture of gases that surrounds a planet, such as Earth.
What is atmopshere
No liquid here. This uppermost layer of the atmosphere, in which temperature increases as altitude increase; includes the ionosphere.
What is thermosphere
The coldest layer of the atmosphere, between the stratosphere and the thermosphere, in which temperature decreases as altitude increases.
What is mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere, in which temperature drops at a constant rate as altitude increases; the part of the atmosphere where weather conditions exist.
What is troposphere
The two most abundant gases in Earth’s atmosphere.
What are nitrogen and oxygen?
This natural event is NOT a liquid, though it can sometimes come with rain, it can help form ozone in the atmosphere.
What is lightning?
What percentage of the solar energy that comes to our upper atmosphere actually arrives at the earth's surface
What is 50%
Colored light produced by charged particles from solar wind and from the magnetosphere that react with the oxygen and nitrogen of Earth’s atmosphere.
What is auroras
The layer of the atmosphere that can reflect radio waves back to earth.
What is the ionosphere
As altitude increases, this decreases.
What is air pressure?
Invisible water in its gaseous form found in the atmosphere.
What is water vapor?
The atmosphere does this to energy from the sun, keeping Earth warm.
What is trapping heat (energy)?
This layer burns up most meteoroids.
What is the mesosphere?
The layer within the atmosphere that absorbs harmbul UV radiation from the sun.
What is the ozone layer?
This gas makes up about 78% of the atmosphere.
What is nitrogen?
The atmosphere allows this state of water to exist on Earth’s surface.
What is liquid water?
The atmosphere protects Earth from this type of harmful energy from the sun.
What is ultraviolet (UV) radiation?
This layer contains the ozone layer.
What is the stratosphere?
Radio waves bounce off this atmospheric layer.
What is the ionosphere?
This gas makes up about 21% of the atmosphere.
What is Oxygen?
The common nickname for the Troposphere. Rain, Snow, Hail, Sleet all happen here lending to this nickname.
What is the weather layer.
The atmosphere burns up most of these before they hit Earth.
What are meteoroids?
This layer contains the ionosphere and exosphere.
What is the thermosphere?
A layer of atmosphere located between the mesosphere and troposphere.
What is the stratosphere?
