Troposphere : 

Troposphere There are 1 and a 1/2 layers. troposphere is the first layer above the surface and contains half of the Earth's atmosphere

Stratosphere : 

Stratosphere The stratosphere is the second major layer of Earth's atmosphere, just above the troposphere, and below the mesosphere. It is stratified in temperature, with warmer layers higher up and cooler layers farther down. This is in contrast to the troposphere near the Earth's surface, which is cooler higher up and warmer farther down. The border of the troposphere and stratosphere. It is has a ozone layer.

Mesosphere : 

Mesosphere The mesosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The mesosphere is above the stratosphere layer. The layer above the mesosphere is called the thermosphere. The mesosphere starts at 50 km (31 miles) above Earth's surface and goes up to 85 km (53 miles) high.

Thermosphere : 

Thermosphere The thermosphere (literally "heat sphere") is the outer layer of the atmosphere, separated from the mesosphere by the mesopause. Within the thermosphere temperatures rise continually to well beyond 1000°C.

Exosphere : 

Exosphere The exosphere is the uppermost layer of the atmosphere. In the exosphere, an upward travelling molecule can escape to space (if it is moving fast enough) or be pulled back to Earth by gravity with little probability of colliding with another molecule.

Ionosphere : 

Ionosphere The ionosphere is the uppermost part of the atmosphere, distinguished because it is ionized by solar radiation. It plays an important part in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner edge of the magnetosphere. It influences radio propagation to distant places on the Earth. It is located in the Thermosphere

What is The Ozone layer? : 

What is The Ozone layer? The ozone layer is a deep layer in the stratosphere, encircling the Earth, that has large amounts of ozone in it. The layer shields the entire Earth from much of the harmful ultraviolet radiation that comes from the sun. Interestingly, it is also this ultraviolet radiation that forms the ozone in the first place.

What Causes the hole in the Ozone layer? : 

What Causes the hole in the Ozone layer? Ozone in the stratosphere is nicely out of the way and has the wonderful benefit to life on earth that it specifically absorbs the harmful ultra-violet light from the sun while letting other light wavelengths through.

What are some of the products that contain the harmful chemicals? : 

What are some of the products that contain the harmful chemicals? Asthma inhalers that contain the medication albuterol to relax the airways also contain chemicals that harm the ozone layer, so US health officials are taking them off the market

How can we make the ozone layer better? : 

How can we make the ozone layer better? . Everyone stopped buying hairspray cans, because the first aerosols were propelled by chemicals that gobble up the ozone layer. Those chemicals have since been banned, so you can stop worrying about your cooking spray. However, these chemicals can still be lurking around in older homes, appliances, products, and some other countries. In this episode, learn how to seek those ozone-depleting chemicals and destroy them!

What Does the Ozone layer protect us from? : 

What Does the Ozone layer protect us from? The ozone layer protects us by: 1) absorbing UV light from our Sun that is not absorbed by other molecules in the air, and 2) being far above where we breathe (ozone is hazardous to your lungs). Air alone will absorb very energetic UV, X-ray, and gamma rays. But ozone extends the protection down to nearly visible light.

Is the Ozone Layer getting bigger or smaller? : 

Is the Ozone Layer getting bigger or smaller? The ozone layerAn area of the ozone layer, such as the large area over Antarctica or the smaller area over the North Pole, that periodically becomes depleted of ozone.  Over Antarctica this year fell short of 1998's record size, providing a piece of good news about the atmosphere's ability to recuperate. To return to health or strength; recover.  from an overdose of pollutants.

The Conclusion : 

The Conclusion I learned a lot about the layers of the atmosphere like the ozone layer is in the stratosphere. Without the ozone layer all of us will die. The troposphere is has the lowest layers in the atmosphere. The highest is the exosphere. The one Like is the mesosphere its so cool its in the middle of the atmosphere. Most of the people like exosphere because it has the longest layers of the atmosphere.
