Stratopause is the upper boundary of which layer?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratosphere
The stratopause is the boundary separating the stratosphere from the mesosphere. Since it marks the top of the stratosphere, option A is correct. The tropopause is the upper boundary of the troposphere, while the thermosphere and exosphere occur much higher in the atmospheric sequence. Remembering the suffix “-pause” as a boundary and the prefix “strato-” identifies the correct layer.
