Which boundary is first encountered while moving upward from Earth surface?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Tropopause
The correct answer is C, the tropopause. Starting at Earth’s surface, one moves through the troposphere first; its upper boundary is called the tropopause. Only after crossing it does one enter the stratosphere and later reach the stratopause. The mesopause and thermopause are much higher boundaries, so they cannot be the first boundary encountered during upward movement.
