a-

earth's surface

b-

stratopause

c-

question 15: the earth continually absorbs energy from the sun. what is the eventual fate of of the majority of that energy?

a-

used by plants for photosynthesis and stored in plant matter.

b-

absorbed the earth, and melts rocks (i. e. causes volcanoes)

c-

it is converted into nuclear energy

d-

it is stored by the earth.

e-

it is re-radiated back to space.

14. Answer is E. Tropopause

15. Answer is E. Re-radiated back to space

Explanation:

14. The atmosphere its classified in layers, the main Layers from lower to higher are called: Troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere.

The boundaries from one layer to another are called the same as the lower layer but with -pause as termination: Tropopause, Stratopause, Mesopause, and termopause.

15. Incident Solar Radiation its about 341.3 W/

about 102 W/ is directly reflected, and only 0.9 W/ is absorbed by plants. The remaining 239 W/ is re-radiated back to space.

heat from the core of the earth causes convection currents to occur in the mantle. these currents slowly move the crust around.
