1,1 What is nitrogen? The most abundant gas in the atmosphere.
1,2 • What is mass? Air has pressure because it has this.
1,3 • What is the troposphere? • This is the layer of the • atmosphere in which • weather occurs.
1,4 • What are the ionosphere and exosphere? These are the two parts of the thermosphere.
2,1 • What is water vapor? This is water in the form of a gas.
2,2 • What is a barometer? • This is an instrument • used to measure • air pressure.
2,3 • What is stratosphere? This is the layer of the atmosphere that contains the ozone layer.
2,4 • What is the ionosphere? • This layer is where the • aurora borealis (Northern • Lights) take place.
3,1 • What is oxygen? This is the second most abundant gas in the atmosphere.
3,2 • What is D=mass/volume? This is the formula for density.
3,3 What is the mesosphere? Meteors burn up in this layer of the atmosphere.
3,4 • What is the exosphere? This is the layer that contains satellites that send signals to phones and TV’s.
4,1 What is the atmosphere? This is the thin envelope of gases that surrounds earth.
4,2 What is an aneroid barometer? This instrument uses a metal chamber to measure air pressure.
4,3 What is the thermosphere? • This is the 1st layer of • atmosphere an astronaut • passes through when • coming back from space.
4,4 What is the ozone layer? This absorbs energy from the sun and protects living things from UV radiation.
5,1 What is 1%? • The percentage of the • atmosphere that is not • nitrogen or oxygen.
5,2 • What is mercury? • This element is used in a • barometer to measure • changes in air pressure.
5,3 What is troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere? • This is the order of the 4 • main layers of the • atmosphere from earth to • space.
5,4 What is increase? This is what happens to the temperature as you go up in the stratosphere.
Describe the reason why earth’satmosphere is importantto living things.
