Answer:
A 1.a.Insulation is the process by which the energy transfers in the form of short waves.
2.The zone marking change in composition and is called as . tropopause
3.around 80%)
The troposphere is the atmospheric layer closest to the planet and contains the largest percentage (around 80%) of the mass of the total atmosphere. Temperature and water vapor content in the troposphere decrease rapidly with altitude.
4.The ionized part of the Earth's atmosphere is known as the ionosphere. ... This is what gives the Ionosphere its name and it is the free electrons that cause the reflection and absorption of radio waves.
