The region of the atmosphere closest to the earth's surface is the stratosphere True or false?
FALSE. The layers of the atmosphere begin with the troposphere (surface to about 10 km), and continue outward with the stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The outermost layer, the exosphere, is sometimes included in the thermosphere, as is the ionosphere.
Which area marks boundary where earths atmosphere is constrained by gravity?
magnetosphere.
Are Mountains that begin when molten materials reaches the earths surface through a weak area crust is called a fault blocked mountains?
No, mountains that are formed when molten materials reach the earth's surface through a weak area in the crust are typically referred to as volcanic mountains. Fault-block mountains, on the other hand, are formed by the movement of tectonic plates along faults, resulting in blocks of crust being uplifted or dropped down.
In which region of the earths interior does the heat increase to the point that rocks begin to melt?
asthenosphere
Can snow melt at 38 degress?
Snow can start to melt at 38 degrees Fahrenheit, as long as the air temperature remains above freezing. When the temperature rises above freezing, the snow will begin to melt.
Where does ionosphere begin above earth?
it begins at 559327 feet above aerths surface
When uplifted rocks reach the earths weathering erosion and deposition begin?
when uplifted rocks reach the Earth's Surface, weathering, erosion, and deposition begin
What does water need to begin evaporating?
What needs a heat source to begin evaporating. Normally the sun is the heat source that evaporates water on the earths surface.
Can a volcanic mountain form underwater and on earths surface?
Some volcanoes arise on land; others begin under the seabed and eventually grow tall enough that part of them is above water. Volcanic islands such as Hawaii are an example of this second type.
What are some space words that begin with the letter I?
· International space station · Ionosphere
Where does the meososphere begin?
The mesosphere lies between ~4800 km and ~8000 km above the Earth's surface

In which region of the earths interior does the heat increase to the that rocks can begin to melt?
asthenosphere
Is the point in the ground where the rocks begin to shift is called the epicenter?
No, the point on the Earth's surface that is directly above the underground point where an earthquake originates is called the epicenter. The point in the ground where the rocks begin to shift is called the focus or hypocenter.
