Answer to Question 1

Answer: stratosphere (or tropopause)

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants convert light energy to chemical energy. Photosynthesis uses energy from sunlight to convert water absorbed by the roots of plants and carbon dioxide taken in from the air into the chemical compounds known as carbohydrates, which both support plant processes and ultimately nourish the animal kingdom. In this process, oxygen molecules are released into the atmosphere as a by-product. For many decades, the rate of carbon dioxide input to the atmosphere has exceeded the rate of removal, leading to a global increase in concentration.
