Science Review!

Why does atmospheric pressure decrease as altitude increases?

• The temperature of the layers increases

• the pull of earth's gravity increases as altitude increases

• Temperature decreases

• The pull of earth's gravity decreases as altitude increases

Why is the ozone layer so important?

• it protects us from meteors

• it protects us from UV radiation

• It keeps charged atoms outside of earth

• it allows weather balloons to travel higher than airplanes

While recording data while traveling up through the atmosphere, the scientist noticed that temperature started decreasing. As altitude increased, the temperature decreased. Which of the five layers could scientist be in?

• thermosphere and troposphere

• mesosphere and troposphere

• exosphere, thermosphere, stratosphere
