1) carbon dioxide and oxygen

2) troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere

3) it is the coldest layer

4)(there is no diagram so i can’t help with that...if you dolmens it i will try to help)

5) The greenhouse effect

6) Volcanoes can impact climate change. During major explosive eruptions huge amounts of volcanic gas, aerosol droplets, and ash are injected into the stratosphere. ... But volcanic gases like sulfur dioxide can cause global cooling, while volcanic carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, has the potential to promote global warming.

# 1 and #2
———————————————————
(there is no image for the next one)

The next one is radiation

QUESTION #4: rises; convection

QUESTION #5: true

QUESTION #6: coriolis effect

*hope this helps*
