• Lithosphere

• Hydrosphere

• Hemisphere

• Atmosphere

Where do you find the OZONE layer?

• In the hydrosphere

• In the stratosphere

• In the thermosphere

• In an ocean

The amount of energy the earth can absorb is called

• Albedo

• Inclination

• Incidence

• Insolation

The layer of the atmosphere where a hot air balloon can fly

• Troposphere

• Stratospere

• Thermosphere

• Temperature Inversion

Land near the equator has more insolation than Saskatoon because of

• The angle of incidence

• The colour of the soil

• All of these are correct
