QUESTION

The temperature increases rapidly after _________.

  1. ionosphere

  2. exosphere

  3. stratosphere

  4. troposphere

ANSWER
Correct Option: Option A,

ionosphere


Ionosphereis the ionized part of Earth's upper atmosphere, from about 60 km (37 mi) to 1,000 km (620 mi) altitude, a region that includes the thermosphere and parts of the mesosphere and exosphere. The ionosphere is ionized by solar radiation. The temperature increases rapidly after Ionoshere. It plays an important role in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner edge of the magnetosphere. It has practical importance because, among other functions, it influences radio propagation to distant places on the Earth. The region below the ionosphere is called neutral atmosphere, or neutrosphere.
