What is 50.24 mm.
300
The transfer of heat where object A touches object B
What is conduction.
400
The mesosphere, because it is lower in altitude so the air molecules are more dense, thereby creating more pressure.
Which layer has greater air pressure: The thermosphere or the mesosphere? What can you say about the gas molecules in this sphere that would explain this?

Earth's crust.
What is the main heat source for the troposphere?
