timurjin [86]

Answer:

e. is produced by the absorption of UV radiation.

Explanation:

The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere which is directly above the mesosphere and below the exosphere. It extends from about 85 to 500 km altitude above the earth.

In the thermosphere, the temperature is strongly dependent on the level of solar activity. When the Sun is very active and emitting more high energy radiation, the thermosphere becomes hotter by X-ray and UV radiation absorption.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

b. Antarctica's ice

Explanation:

Earth is flatter at the South Pole than the North Pole because of the weight of the Antarctica's ice.

The Antarctica ice  cap is the largest single mass of ice on earth. It covers almost 14 million square kilometers and it weighs 26,500,000 Gigatons.

As a result of this heavy weight, it compresses the South Pole of the earth causing the earth to be flatter at the South Pole.

This gives the Earth its slight pear shape.
