In which layers of earths atmosphere does temperature decrease with altitude?

2 answers:

The troposphere gets its heat from the ground, and so temperature decreases with altitude. Warm air rises and cool air sinks and so the troposphere is unstable. In the stratosphere, temperature increases with altitude.

SO the answer is C. Troposphere and Stratosphere.

Renewable energy is energy that doesn't run out.Examples of these are wind and water. Nonrenewable energy sources are things like oil and coal—fossil fuels, because once they're gone, we're not getting them back. but we'll always have wind and water.

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

"Island ArcsIsland arcs are long, curved chains of oceanic islands associated with seismic activity and mountain-building processes at certain plate boundaries. They occur where oceanic tectonic plates collide. Along one side of these island arcs, there is usually a long, narrow deep-sea trench.At island arcs, the denser plate is subducted and is forced into the partially molten mantle under the less dense plate. The islands are composed of the extrusive igneous rocks basalt and andesite. The basalt originates most likely from the plastic mantle. The andesite originates most likely from the melting of parts of the descending plate and sediments that had accumulated on its surface.Which list identifies minerals present in andesite from the greatest percentage by volume to the least percentage by volume? "
As the different situations and events gave rise to the seven different tectonic plates which comprises the over all structure of the planet, as there are a number of geological sites that took there shape because of the movement of the different planetary regions, layers, or the components which makes up the deep down trenches and the islands along with the different volcanic hotspots.
Mostly the subduction region is only due the movement or the sliding of the different tectonic plates which gives rise to a way different catastrophic events like the creation of the seismic way may generate the earth quakes inside the different regions.
Along, with that the different climates across the globe are also due the difference in such geological sites.

How is the study of the earth's interior an example of indirect observation

castortr0y [4]

There is really nothing to know. All you have to use is context clues and common sense. We know some synonyms for direct are manage and handle. Indirect means not direct, right? And we can't handle or manage earth's interior (core), right? Therefore, the study of earth's interior is an example of indirect observation because we cannot directly manage it.
