QuestionAnswer
What is the Mesosphere Meteors burn up here; temperatures decrease with altitude.
What is the Troposphere Closest to Earth; where weather happens (clouds, rain); airplanes fly in lower part.
What is the Stratosphere Contains the ozone layer; commercial jets sometimes cruise near its lower region;
What is the Thermosphere Auroras occur; very thin air; temperature increases with altitude; satellites begin to orbit in upper parts.
What is the Exosphere Outermost layer; very sparse gas; satellites orbit here.
What is evaporation Liquid water becomes water vapor. This process absorbs energy (heat from the Sun).
What is transpiration Water released from plants into the air; also absorbs energy (driven by heat for evaporation from leaves).
What is condensation Water vapor cools and forms droplets (clouds). Condensation releases energy into the atmosphere (latent heat).]
What is precipition Droplets fall as rain/snow due to gravity — this is driven by gravity.
What is Surface runoff and infiltration/percolation Water moves across or into the ground; largely driven by gravity
What is sublimation Solid (ice/snow) becomes water vapor, absorbs energy
True or False Condensation requires cooling of water vapor and tiny particles (dust, smoke) called condensation nuclei. True

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
