Answer:
<em>The air particles in the thermosphere absorb high-energy radiation from the Sun.</em>
Explanation:
The thermosphere lies above the mesosphere but below the exosphere in the Earth's atmosphere. The thermosphere can be considered to be part of space because of how close to space it lies, and ionization of particles by ultraviolet rays occurs a lot here; this been that some part of the thermosphere is overlapped by the ionosphere. Due to its proximity to space, particles in the thermosphere are exposed to a high level of solar energy radiation, which causes their temperature to be very high, sometimes as high as 1700 °C or more.
Answer:
The closest group of asteroids to our Sun is called the Asteroid Belt. It is 329 million to 478.7 million km away from our Sun.
Explanation:
No other group of asteroids is closer than this one. You can find the Asteroid Belt between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars. Half of the mass of these asteroids is from asteroids Ceres, Vesta, Pallas, and Hygiea.
A question like this could of been found with a google search but I will post it anyway. According to National Snow and Ice Data Center, glacier cover roughly about 10% of the earth surfaces. Mostly regions like Greenland and Antarctica

temperate
Explanation:
London and Paris are very large cities. Both of them are located in the western part of Europe, with Paris being the capital of France, while London is the capital of the island nation of the United Kingdom.
These cities are located in plains, with large rivers running through them, and they are close to the sea. This has resulted in both Paris and London being heavily influenced by the sea, which has made their climates relatively pleasant.
The temperatures tend to be moderate, warm in summer, but without extremes, while the winters are cold, but also without any extremes. Also, there is significant amounts of precipitation throughout the year. The people naturally chose these places for living as they have more pleasant climate, thus it provides good living conditions, so over time as more and more people flocked in, these cities became enormous.
A population pyramid tells us how many dependants there are. There are two groups of dependants, young dependants (aged below 15) and elderly.
