Atmosphere+Earth's+Protective+Layer

=media type="custom" key="7171429"Atmosphere ﻿Earths Protective layers= Without the atmosphere life would not exist on Earth. It's a protective layer between Earth and space. It stops astroids from hitting us and stops radiation from coming in. It also helps regulate tempature by catching sun rays.The Atmosphere is made up of 9 Gases,but most of it is Nitrogen and Oxygen.Carbon Dioxide is also in the atmosphere this is essential for plants to carry out Photosynthesis-The Process of capturing energy from the sun to make food. There is four layers that make up the atmoshpere. The troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and the theremosphere. The troposphere is where the actuall weather takes place. It is where percipatation and clouds form from vapor and water particals in the air.The troposphere is about 12 kilometers high.IT's related to heat transfer bacause it's where heat transfer takes place. As you increase in altitude the tempature drops. As you decrease the tempature increasConclusion: The Atmosphere is a very helpful trait for the Earth because we wouldnt be able to breathe or live without it, and without it there would be no Nitrogen, or Oxygen and without that life would cease to exist on Earth. A surprise that caught us off guard is how anything that enters the Atmosphere burns up before it can cause any damage to the Earth.
