Answer:

An atmosphere is a layer or a set of layers of gases surrounding a planet or other material body, that is held in place by the gravity of that body. An atmosphere is more likely to be retained if the gravity it is subject to is high and the temperature of the atmosphere is low.

Answer:

An atmosphere is the layers of gases surrounding a planet or other celestial body. Earth's atmosphere is composed of about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and one percent other gases.

The atmosphere protects living things from the Sun's most harmful rays. Gases reflect or absorb the strongest rays of sunlight (figure below). The atmosphere shields Earth from the most harmful solar rays.

The atmosphere consists of 4 layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere
