Answer:
here is the answer pls mark the brainliest
Explanation:
(i) The huge blanket of air surrounding the Earth is called atmosphere.
(ii) Nitrogen and oxygen make the bulk of the atmosphere.
(iii) Carbon dioxide creates greenhouse effect in the atmosphere.
(iv) Weather refers to the short-term changes in the atmosphere. It is the hour-to-hour, day-to-day condition of the atmosphere.
(v) Convectional rainfall, orographic rainfall and cyclonic rainfall are the three types of rainfall.

Answer:
The atmosphere of Earth is the layer of gases, commonly known as air, retained by Earth's gravity, surrounding the planet Earth and forming its planetary atmosphere
The two gases that make the bulk of the atmosphere are:
Oxygen (21%)
Nitrogen (78%)
Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and other gases that accumulate in the atmosphere and create the heat-reflective layer that keeps the Earth at a livable temperature. These gases form the insulation that keeps the planet warm enough to support life.
Weather is the state of the atmosphere, describing for example the degree to which it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy. ... Weather refers to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity, whereas climate is the term for the averaging of atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time.
The three types of rainfall include relief, convectional, and frontal rainfall. Relief rainfall is rainfall that occurs when wind blows moist air in...
Atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area exerted by the weight of the atmosphere
