    During day time, on being heated, a large amount of water evaporates from various water bodies and goes into the air. A part of this water vapour also reaches the atmosphere through biological activities such as transpiration and respiration. This causes the air in the atmosphere to heat up.
    When this heated air rises, it expands and cools, which results in the condensation of water vapour forming water droplets. The presence of dust and other suspended particles in air also facilitates the process of condensation. The formation of water droplets leads to the formation of clouds.

  2. An uneven heating of the Earth’s surface causes winds. On being heated, air becomes lighter and rises up. As a result, a region of low pressure is created. Then, air from a high pressure region moves to a low pressure region, causing wind. For more answers visit to website: https://www.tiwariacademyRead more

  3. The atmosphere acts as a blanket by performing the following functions: (a) It keeps the average temperature of the Earth fairly constant during day time and even during the course of whole year. (b) It prevents a sudden increase in the temperature during day time. (c) It slows down the escape of heRead more

  4. Earth’s atmosphere is different from those of Venus and Mars. This difference lies essentially in their compositions. Earth’s atmosphere is a mixture of nitrogen (79%), oxygen (20%), and a small fraction of carbon dioxide, water vapours and other gases. This makes the existence of life possible on ERead more

    Earth’s atmosphere is different from those of Venus and Mars. This difference lies essentially in
    their compositions. Earth’s atmosphere is a mixture of nitrogen (79%), oxygen (20%), and a small
    fraction of carbon dioxide, water vapours and other gases. This makes the existence of life possible on Earth. However, the atmospheres on Venus and Mars mainly consist of carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide on these planets can range from 95% to 97%.
