In which layer does air become extremely rarefied?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Exosphere
Air becomes extremely rarefied in the exosphere, making option D correct. Atmospheric pressure and density decrease as altitude increases, and the exosphere contains only a very small number of widely separated particles. The troposphere is comparatively dense, while the stratosphere and mesosphere still contain substantially more gas. This extreme thinness is why the exosphere gradually merges with space.
