The atmosphere of earth is made of five main layers.

1) Troposphere : This is the lowest part of the atmosphere. Most of the air that makes up the atmosphere is present in this layer.

2) Stratosphere : This layer is present above troposphere and extends up to 50 km. It contains ozone layer which prevents the harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun from entering the lower troposphere

3) Mesosphere : The layer above stratosphere is known as mesosphere.

4) Thermosphere : The region lies above mesosphere.

5) Exosphere : The is the outermost region of the atmosphere.

From the above discussion we can see that the layer that lies between exosphere and mesosphere is Thermosphere
