(a) What is the primary basis for the division of the atmosphere into different regions?

Accepted Answer

Hey everyone were as true or false. Temperature profile is the main basis for the division into the different regions of the atmosphere. First let's go ahead and name the different regions of the atmosphere and we can go ahead and assess whether the statement is true or false. So first we have our troposphere And this is going to be at 0-12 km and this is at 15 Kelvin. Next we have our stratosphere And this is going to be at 12-50 km and this is at 275 Kelvin. Next we have our mesosphere And this is going to be at 50 to 85 km And this will be at 185 Calvin. Next we have our thermos fear And this is at 85, two, km And its temperature profile is at Kelvin. So looking at our different regions, we can see that the main basis for the division is in fact our temperature profiles. So our statement here is going to be true. Now, I hope this made sense. And let us know if you have any questions
