In which layer does temperature decrease with height, but meteor burning rather than weather is the key clue?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Mesosphere
The mesosphere is identified by a decrease in temperature with increasing altitude, and many meteoroids burn there as they encounter atmospheric gases. This combination makes option C correct. The troposphere is the main weather layer, the stratosphere generally warms upward because of ozone absorption, and the exosphere is too thin to be the usual zone of meteor burning described in this question.
