Solution

The correct option is A Thermosphere
The ionosphere is not another atmospheric layer. It occupies the same region of the upper atmosphere as the thermosphere. In this region of the atmosphere the Sun's energy is so strong that it breaks apart molecules and atoms of air, leaving ions. So the correct answer is 'Thermosphere'.
