Answer: In the ionosphere, the collision that raises the energy levels of oxygen and nitrogen occurs between:

  • gas atoms
  • electrons

Step-by-step explanation:

Earth's uppermost layer is ionized and it is known as ionosphere. In altitude, ionosphere is about 60 km to 1,000 km high.

It is ionized by solar radiations and in atmospheric electricity ionosphere plays an important role as inner edge of magnetosphere is formed by ionosphere.

Also, in the ionosphere, the collision that raises the energy levels of oxygen and nitrogen occurs between gas atoms and electrons.
