In which atmospheric layer is air needed for human life most readily available?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Troposphere
The troposphere is the lowest atmospheric layer and lies directly above Earth’s surface, where people, animals, and plants live. It contains most of the atmosphere’s mass and therefore has the greatest concentration of oxygen and other gases needed for ordinary life. Option A is correct. The mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere are much higher, with progressively thinner air and conditions unsuitable for normal human breathing.
