Which clue is most effective for identifying the boundary between the mesosphere and thermosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Temperature minimum at the mesopause and increase above it
The mesopause is the boundary near the top of the mesosphere and is characterized by one of the lowest atmospheric temperatures. Above it, in the thermosphere, temperature begins to increase with altitude because sparse gases absorb energetic solar radiation. Therefore option C is the effective identifying clue. Rainfall and sea breezes are tropospheric phenomena, while liquefaction of gases does not define this atmospheric boundary.
