Put these layers in order from
lowest
to
highest
Thermosphere, Stratosphere, Troposphere and MesosphereSlide4
Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, ThermosphereSlide5
Layers of the Atmosphere -200
Which layer is the one that we live in?Slide6
Troposphere Slide7
Layers of the Atmosphere – 300
Which layer is the coldest?Slide8
MesosphereSlide9
Layers of the Atmosphere - 400
The stratosphere contains the ozone layer. What is the job of the Ozone Layer?Slide10
To protect us from the Sun’s harmful rays Slide11
Layers of the Atmosphere - 500
The thermosphere is over 1,000 degrees Celsius. Why does it not feel hot? Slide12
The particles of air are so far apart, they do not bump into each other. Heat can only be created when particle collide.Slide13
Heating the Earth -100
What process sends electromagnetic waves from the Sun to the Earth?Slide14
Radiation
Slide15
Heating the Earth – 200
What is the process of heat traveling through an object?Slide16
Thermal ConductionSlide17
Heating the Earth - 300
What process involves the circulation of heat in a liquid or a gas?Slide18
Convection
Slide19
Heating the Earth – 400
Where does most of the earth’s heat conduction take place?Slide20
The ground Slide21
Heating the Earth - 500
Which of the three processes take place when I cook food in a frying pan?Slide22
Conduction (the heat travels through the pan)Slide23
Climate Change - 100
Which gas is responsible for trapping the most heat in the atmosphere? Slide24
Carbon DioxideSlide25
Climate Change - 200
Name two ways higher temperatures will impact the Earth.Slide26
Warmer Oceans
Melted Glaciers
Stronger Hurricanes
Droughts
Damaged Wildlife
Higher Water LevelsSlide27
Climate Change – 300
Explain the “Greenhouse Effect”. How does it help the Earth?Slide28
The Greenhouse Effect traps heat from the Sun in our atmosphere. It keeps the Earth warm.Slide29
Climate Change – 400
What are 3 types of clean energy resources? Slide30
Hydro-power
Wind Power
Solar Power
Nuclear Power
Biomass Power
Geothermal PowerSlide31
Climate Change - 500
List three specific ways that you could save energy and fight climate change. Slide32
Save on water
Unplug electronics
Car pool
Ride you bike/walk
Reuse and RecycleSlide33
The Atmosphere - 100
What two main gases make up the atmosphere?Slide34
Oxygen and NitrogenSlide35
The Atmosphere – 200
What are two jobs of the atmosphere?Slide36
Protects us from UV rays
Protects us from meteors
Provides us with oxygen
Keeps us warmSlide37
The Atmosphere – 300
What is air pressure?Slide38
The amount of air particles pressing down on you.Slide39
The Atmosphere - 400
How are altitude and air pressure related to each other?Slide40
As altitude goes up, air pressure goes down.Slide41
The Atmosphere - 500
What determines the temperature of the atmosphere?Slide42
Layers that absorb more heat have higher temperatures.
Layers that absorb less heat have lower temperatures.
