Solution
Atmosphere:
The earth is surrounded by an invisible thick layer of air called the
atmosphere.
It extends to thousands of kilometers above the surface of the earth.
It protects the earth’s surface from harmful radiation from the sun.
Without the atmosphere, there could be no life on earth.
The atmosphere is mainly composed of five layers: These are troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere.
