Match a layer of the atmosphere with each statement. There are two statements per layer.

I fly a kite in this layer.


I cruise in a plane in this layer.


My cell phone works because of this layer.


Most shooting stars burn up in this layer.


The temperature is coldest in this layer.


The temperature is hottest in this layer.


The ozone layer is part of this layer.


Most weather occurs in this layer.

The correct matches are:

I fly a kite in this layer - Troposphere

I cruise in a plain in this layer - Stratosphere

My cell phone works because of this layer - Thermosphere

Most shooting stars burn up in this layer - Mesosphere

The temperature is coldest in this layer - Mesosphere

The temperature is the hottest in this layer - Thermosphere

The ozone layer is part of this layer - Stratosphere

Most weather occurs in this layer - Troposphere

The Earth has a complex atmosphere that has five layers, all with their own unique characteristics. The lowest layer is the troposphere, and than come the stratosphere, the mesosphere, the thermosphere, and the exosphere.

The troposphere is the lowest and densest layer, and in this layer occurs most of the weather on our planet. The stratosphere is the second layer, less dense, ad having another layer in it, the ozone layer, which is crucial as it protects the Earth from too much ultraviolet radiations. The Mesosphere is the third layer, being the coldest of all, and the layer where most of the asteroids burn up and fall apart. The theromsphere is very hot, the hottest of the layers, and it where the ionization occurs, which enables the mobile phones to work as we know them.
