The image you've uploaded is a worksheet titled
"Label Layers of the Atmosphere". It shows a diagram of Earth with five labeled layers of the atmosphere (numbered 1 to 5 from top to bottom), and a word bank with the following terms:
- Thermosphere
- Troposphere
- Stratosphere
- Exosphere
- Mesosphere
Your task is to correctly label each numbered layer using the words from the word bank.

Step-by-step Solution:
Let’s analyze the diagram and the order of atmospheric layers from
top to bottom (outer space to Earth's surface):
1.
Exosphere – This is the outermost layer of the atmosphere, where atoms and molecules escape into space. It's the
highest layer.
2.
Thermosphere – Below the exosphere, this layer contains the ionosphere and gets very hot due to solar radiation.
3.
Mesosphere – The layer above the stratosphere; it's where meteors burn up.
4.
Stratosphere – Contains the ozone layer; temperature increases with altitude here.
5.
Troposphere – The lowest layer, where weather occurs and most of the atmosphere's mass is located.
So, going from
top (1) to
bottom (5):
1.
Exosphere
2.
Thermosphere
3.
Mesosphere
4.
Stratosphere
5.
Troposphere

Final Answer:
| Number | Layer |
|--------|---------------|
| 1 | Exosphere |
| 2 | Thermosphere |
| 3 | Mesosphere |
| 4 | Stratosphere |
| 5 | Troposphere |
