Answer:

As altitude increases, temperature decreases.

Explanation:

In the troposphere as altitude increases, the temperature decreases.

  • It is common to hear that "the higher you go, the cooler it becomes"
  • This is scientifically correct.
  • The reason for this is that the atmosphere is made up of gases.
  • The earth is a better heat conductor.
  • It absorbs more heat and the gases close to the ground will have more heat energy.
  • The gases farther from the earth surface will be cooler than those in contact with the ground.
