What to Focus On

  • The atmosphere is a blanket of air around Earth.
  • It extends to about 10,000 km from the Earth's surface.
  • Air becomes thinner with height.
  • Nitrogen and oxygen make up most of the atmosphere.
  • Argon and carbon dioxide are present in small amounts.
  • Water vapour is part of the atmosphere.
  • The atmosphere has five main layers.
  • The troposphere is the lowest layer and is the weather layer.
  • The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The atmosphere ends near the clouds or just above the troposphere.

Weather happens in every layer of the atmosphere.

The troposphere is the same height everywhere on Earth.
