Which suffix commonly appears in words naming boundaries between atmospheric layers?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: -pause
The suffix “-pause” denotes a boundary or transition zone between two atmospheric layers. Examples include tropopause between the troposphere and stratosphere, stratopause between the stratosphere and mesosphere, and mesopause between the mesosphere and thermosphere. Therefore option A is correct. “-sphere” names a layer itself, while ocean and soil are unrelated terms and are not atmospheric boundary suffixes.
