This is where earths weather occurs
What is Troposphere
100
Energy from the sun causes gas molecules to be electrically charged particles
What is Ionosphere
100
movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.
What is Convection

Describes the weather conditions in an area over a long period of time
What is Climate
