Which pair correctly relates a layer with its major controlling factor?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratosphere and ozone heating
In the stratosphere, ozone absorbs ultraviolet radiation and converts part of that energy into heat. This produces the characteristic temperature increase with altitude and helps control the layer’s thermal structure, so option A is correct. Hydrogen escape is associated with the very upper atmosphere, monsoon rainfall with the troposphere, and surface friction mainly with the atmospheric boundary layer rather than the mesosphere.
