Everything Else
100
In this layer all of our weather occurs.
What is troposphere?
100
Airplanes fly in this layer
What is troposphere?
100
Another name for rain, snow, sleet, and hail
What is precipation
100
This is a nature made occurrence that puts ash and chemicals into our atmosphere
What is volcanic eruptions.

Which part of the atmosphere is the Ozone Layer found in?

Stratosphere

200
The ozone is contained in this layer
What is stratosphere?
200
Weather balloons fly in this layer
What is stratosphere
200
When water vapor changes to water droplets
What is condensation
200

These can eventually cause a hole in our ozone layer. We don't need to be that pretty.

What is aerosol spray

200

This is what happens when the land cannot absorb all the rain

What is runoff?

300
This layer is the coldest
What is mesosphere?
300
This layer has air that is thin and very hot
What is thermosphere
300
When water vapor enters the atmosphere as water vapor
What is evaporation
300
This causes pollution and can harm us. Why don't we just use a trash can?
What is burning?
300
This is the process by which water moves through the atmosphere, land, and ocean
What is water cycle
400
This layer is the warmest.
What is thermosphere?
400
Shuttles orbit in this layer
What is thermosphere
400
When water droplets come from plants and enters the atmosphere as water vapor
What is transpiration
400
This causes pollution but can be stopped if we just rode our bikes more
What is burning of fossil fuels
400
These are the two main gases in our atmosphere
What is nitrogen and oxygen
500
In this layer the temperature decreases as the altitude increases.
What is troposphere?
500
Satellites orbit in this layer
What is exosphere
500
Explain in detail the water cycle
What is water enters the atmosphere as water vapor through the process of evaporation. The droplets form clouds and when the clouds get heavy with condensation, precipitation occurs.
500
This is when the gases in the atmosphere absorb and retain the energy radiated from the land and oceans.
What is Greenhouse Effect
500
This is the force exerted by the gases pushing on an object
What is air pressure
