What is the definition of ATMOSPHERE?

• The warming of the surface and lower atmosphere of Earth that occurs when gases in the atmosphere absorb and give off energy.

• A mixture of gases that surrounds a planet, moon, or other celestial body

• A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object.

• The measure of the force with which air molecules push on a surface.

What is the definition of AIR PRESSURE?

• The measure of the force with which air molecules push on a surface.

• A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object.

• The transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves.

• A mixture of gases that surrounds a planet, moon, or other celestial body.

What is the definition of TROPOSPHERE?

• The lowest layer of the atmosphere, in which temperature drops at a constant rate as altitude increases; the part of the atmosphere where weather conditions exist.

• The layer of the atmosphere that lies between the troposphere and the mesosphere and in which temperature increases as altitude increases; contains the ozone layer.

• The layer of the atmosphere between the stratosphere and the thermosphere and in which temperature decreases as altitude increases.

• The uppermost layer of the atmosphere, in which temperature increases as altitude increases.
