Final answer:

Without the diagram or additional context, it cannot be determined which atmospheric layer the letter 'C' represents. The layers, ordered from closest to farthest from the Earth, are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

Without explicit labeling in a diagram or additional contextual information, accurately identifying which layer of the atmosphere is represented by the letter 'C' cannot be determined. In the provided options 1) Troposphere 2) Stratosphere 3) Cannot be determined, the correct choice would therefore be 'Cannot be determined'.

For reference, the Earth's atmosphere is composed of several layers: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere, with the troposphere being the lowest and the site of most weather phenomena, and the stratosphere located immediately above the troposphere, known for containing the protective ozone layer.
