Characteristics of the Atmosphere Atmosphere is a mixture of gases that surrounds Earth. It protects us from the sun’s damaging rays. The atmosphere is constantly changing because of our actions on Earth.

Characteristics of the Atmosphere 78% of Earth’s atmosphere is made up of Nitrogen. 21% is made up of Oxygen. 1% is made up of several different gases like argon and Carbon Dioxide.

Air Pressure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeAp3CuGjk8

Air Pressure Air pressure is the measure of the force with which air molecules push on a surface. Like a human pyramid, air pressure increases the close it is to Earth’s surface.
