pressure
when mass in pushing on something
altitude
distance from sea level
jet stream
a very strong wind
ozone layer
in the middle of the stratosphere and stops all the deadly heat rays from the sun
list all the major gasses
nitrogen ,oxygen ,argon
major gasses with percant
nitrogen78.08, oxygen 20.95, argon .93
list the layers of the atmmostphere in order
trophosphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere,
provid evediance that God created the atmosphere
if the ozone layer wasnt in the correct place or evan there the whole world would die becouse of the ray blasts from the sun. if there wasnt the exact amount of gas we would all die or not have enough air and we would also get possined
explain what your seeing as you go up threw all the layers
while i was traveling through the troposphere i saw the world seem smaller and the cars seem like moving dots then i’d see the white from all the clouds, when i enter the stratosphere i would be moving around a lot because it has very fast moving winds and it would be very bright because of the uv index, when i enter the mesosphere i would see very unique clouds and a lot of shooting stars, then when i enter the thermosphere some people would say i was in space and could see the northern lights and southern lights and would see the international space station.
