Solution

To identify the various levels of the atmosphere, here are the correct order and characteristics of each layer:

  1. Troposphere - This is the lowest layer of the atmosphere where weather occurs. It extends from the Earth's surface up to about 8-15 kilometers (5-9 miles) high, depending on geographic location.

  2. Stratosphere - Above the troposphere, this layer extends from about 15 kilometers (9 miles) to about 50 kilometers (31 miles) high. The ozone layer is located within the stratosphere.

  3. Mesosphere - This is the third layer, extending from around 50 kilometers (31 miles) to about 85 kilometers (53 miles). It is where most meteoroids burn up upon entering the Earth’s atmosphere.

  4. Thermosphere - Above the mesosphere, this layer extends from approximately 85 kilometers (53 miles) to 600 kilometers (372 miles). The temperature increases significantly in this layer due to solar activity.

  5. Exosphere - This is the outermost layer of the atmosphere, starting around 600 kilometers (372 miles) and extending out to about 10,000 kilometers (6,200 miles). It is where the atmosphere transitions into outer space.

You can arrange the layers in the order listed above.
