Question

In the troposphere, temperature ________ with increasing altitude, while in the stratosphere, temperature ________ with increasing altitude.

a.increases, increases
b.decreases, decreases
c.increases, decreases
d.decreases, increases and) decreases, remains constant

Answer 1

Altitude increase temperature decreases in Troposphere. Air pressure is the greatest in the troposphere. In stratosphere the temperature increases as well as altitude increase. Ozone is a form of oxygen and protects the sun UV rays. The temperature of ozone is high and air pressure decrease in this layer. Aeroplanes fly’s on ozone to avoid storms. Weather balloons collect data to the stratosphere. The correct answer is D.
