The atmosphere consists of 4 layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere. This is the layer where we live and where weather happens. Temperature in this layer generally decreases with height. The boundary between the stratosphere and the troposphere is called the tropopause. Above the tropopause lies the stratosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height. This is because the stratosphere houses the ozone layer. The ozone layer is warm because it absorbs ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. The mesosphere is the layer above the stratosphere.This layer also contains ratios of nitrogen and oxygen similar to the troposphere, except the concentrations are 1000 times less and there is little water vapor there, so the air is too thin for weather to occur. The thermosphere is the uppermost layer of the atmosphere. In this layer the temperature increases with height because it is being directly heated by the sun.
I got this info from North Carolina Climate Office.

Two ways in which the proximity to water has affected Western Europe's economy:
1) Proximity of water can lead to lack of food, which affects economy of the country in various ways.
2) It has wet cool summers and wet, mild winters, so for shelters and cloths, it affects economy by transportation, extra manufacture etc.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Volcanoes and Earthquakes occur more frequently where tectonic plates meet or separate
Explanation:
Volcanoes do occur underwater at mid - oceanic ridges but it often occurs when the plates are separating and this usually forms new islands
Explanation:
Rocks can be classified in to three main groups - igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. These three different rock types can be found in distinct areas of the UK. Igneous rocks - these rocks are a result of volcanic activity in the past, when Britain was close to a plate boundary.
