Explanation

Option A is incorrect because the layer containing about 70% of the atmosphere's mass, characterized by a consistent temperature decrease, is the troposphere, not the stratosphere. Option B correctly states that the stratosphere is ozone-rich and lies above the troposphere. Option C accurately describes the troposphere as a turbulent zone with water vapor and clouds. Option D correctly notes that Earth's atmosphere extends roughly 200 kilometers above the planet.
