Which option correctly compares stratopause and mesopause?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratopause is above stratosphere and mesopause is above mesosphere
Option A is correct because the suffix “pause” denotes a boundary or transition between atmospheric layers. The stratopause is the upper boundary of the stratosphere and lies below the mesosphere. The mesopause is the upper boundary of the mesosphere and lies below the thermosphere; it is also associated with the lowest temperatures in the atmospheric profile. The other statements place these boundaries at completely wrong locations.
