Which option correctly compares the temperature trends of the troposphere and stratosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Temperature decreases in the troposphere and increases in the stratosphere
Option A is correct because the two layers have opposite temperature gradients. In the troposphere, temperature usually falls with height as the surface is the principal heat source. In the stratosphere, ozone absorbs ultraviolet radiation, so temperature generally rises upward. Options B, C, and D reverse or deny these established atmospheric patterns.
