What is the main basis of energy exchange in the troposphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Surface absorption of solar energy and heating of lower air
The governing concept is surface-based heating of the troposphere. Earth’s surface absorbs solar radiation and then transfers energy to the air above it through conduction, convection, and outgoing infrared radiation. Warm air rises, cool air sinks, and this circulation supports clouds, rainfall, and weather. Rain does not come from the exosphere, oxygen is not completely absent in the mesosphere, and the stratosphere is relatively dry; therefore A is correct.
