Hello,

The answer is option C "thermosphere".

Reason:

The troposphere is the layer of the air that the harmful heat rays (from the sun is mostly absorbed). The thermosphere is directly above the exosphere which is the sphere with the thin layer of the sphere therefore the answer should be option C.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
