Final Review - Meteorology

Layer of the atmosphere where the ozone layer is located:

• troposphere
• stratosphere
• mesosphere
• thermosphere

Layer of the atmosphere furthest from Earth's surface:

• troposphere
• exosphere
• mesosphere
• stratosphere

Layer of the atmosphere that is the coldest:

• troposphere
• stratosphere
• mesosphere
• thermosphere

As altitude increases in the Troposphere, what happens to the air temperature?

• air temperature increases
• temperature decreases
• temperature fluctuates
• temperature rises

What is an important role of the Ozone Layer?

• It protects the mesosphere from the Sun's harmful rays.

• It protects the troposphere from the Sun's harmful rays.
