The atmosphere is divided into different regions, called layers. The layer closest to the surface is known as troposphere, after which comes the stratosphere. The stratosphere begins at an altitude of 10 miles above the surface of the earth and stretches up to 31 miles above the surface of the earth. It is the second layer of the atmosphere (beginning from the surface of the earth) and it is the region which contains ozone, which plays a vital role in stopping ultraviolet radiation from reaching the earth's surface.
Answer:
smelling rotten eggs - covering your nose
touching a hot dish - pulling your hand away
jumping into a cold pool - shivering
Explanation:
<u>A stimulus generally refers to a detectable change in the environment of an organism. These changes could be physical or chemical and could be in the internal or external environment of organisms. </u>
Organisms react to changes in their internal or external environment by responding appropriately. Hence perceiving the smell of rotten egg, feeling the hotness of a dish by touching it, and feeling cold immediately one jumps into a cold pool are all examples of stimuli and their corresponding responses would be covering one's nose, pulling the hand away, and shivering of the body in order to counter the cold.
In other words:
<em>smelling rotten eggs - covering your nose</em>
<em>touching a hot dish - pulling your hand away</em>
<em>jumping into a cold pool - shivering</em>
It would be found around mountains
The passive transport of water is specifically called osmosis.
