Layers of the Atmosphere
The layer in the atmosphere where we live in
The Troposphere
Convection is defined as heat transfer through ____ contact
direct
The gas in the atmosphere that we breathe
Oxygen
This state of matter is rigid with a fixed shape and volume
Solid
The atmospheric layer that contains the ozone layer
When heat is transferred through electromagnetic waves
Radiation
About 78% of the atmosphere is composed of this gas
Nitrogen
This state of matter is not rigid, has no fixed shape but has a fixed volume
Liquid
Weather occurs in this layer
The Troposphere
This process is the transfer of energy due to density difference in the air
Convection
Clouds in the atmosphere are composed of this substance
Water vapor
This state of matter has neither fixed shape or volume
Gas
Beyond this atmospheric layer is space (no clear boundary)
The Earth receives heat from the Sun through this heat transfer process
Radiation
This protects the atmosphere protects the Earth from harmful radiation from the Sun
Ozone
The atmosphere is composed mainly of this state of matter
Gas
