At which boundary does the troposphere end and the stratosphere begin?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Tropopause
Option B is correct because the tropopause is the boundary separating the troposphere below from the stratosphere above. It marks a major change in the temperature pattern and in vertical mixing: weather and strong convection are concentrated below it, while the stratosphere is more stable above it. The stratopause separates the stratosphere from the mesosphere, the mesopause separates the mesosphere from the thermosphere, and the thermopause is associated with the upper thermosphere. Therefore only B fits the named layers.
