Hint: This layer is closest to the Earth's surface and contains three-quarters of the mass of the entire atmosphere.

Let’s take a brief look at what the other layers are up to:

Stratosphere: Above the troposphere lies the stratosphere, where the ozone layer resides, absorbing ultraviolet radiation and causing temperature to increase with altitude.
Mesosphere: Beyond the stratosphere is the mesosphere, where temperatures decrease with altitude and meteors burn up upon entering Earth's atmosphere.
Thermosphere: The thermosphere is characterized by extremely high temperatures due to the absorption of solar radiation, but it would feel very cold to a human because the air density is so low.
Exosphere: The exosphere is the outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere, gradually transitioning into space, where the few particles present can escape Earth's gravity and form the geocorona, a faint halo of hydrogen around our planet.
