the hottest, thickest layer

• thermosphere

• exosphere

• mesosphere

• stratosphere

The layer were animals and plants live

• stratosphere

• thermosphere

• mesosphere

• troposphere

The outer most layer with little to no air pressure

• exosphere

• thermosphere

• stratosphere

• troposphere

The layers in the atmosphere are classified by the changes in

• altitude

• temperature

• density

• weather

As altitude increases in the atmosphere, air pressure__________

• increases

• decreases

• stays the same

• does not change

What happens to the temperature in the troposphere as altitude increases?

• decreases

• increases

• stays the same

• gets hot and then cold
