What generally happens to temperature with increasing height in the troposphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Decreases
In the troposphere, temperature generally decreases as altitude increases. The average environmental lapse rate is about 6.5°C per kilometre, although the exact value varies with location and conditions. This occurs because the troposphere is heated mainly from Earth’s surface. It does not remain constant or suddenly become zero, so option C is correct.
