Solution

The correct option is D Mesosphere < Stratosphere < Troposphere
Gravity pulls atmospheric particles towards Earth. This causes them to create pressure. As the altitude increases the number of particles decreases, due to which atmospheric pressure keeps on decreasing.

Therefore, the correct order of increasing atmospheric pressure is:
Mesosphere < Stratosphere < Troposphere.
