Answer:
The correct answer for: Scientists were monitoring a meteor headed toward Earth. It moved off course, but some pieces of rock entered the Earth’s atmosphere. Which atmospheric layer protected the Earth against the danger of the rocks? Is: The mesosphere
Explanation:
The mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere between the stratosphere and the thermosphere. It is one of the layers that trap gasses and objects into the earth's gravity field. One curious fact about it is that while higher the altitude lower the temperature but is quite obvious because the temperature is made by gravity and pressure, lower gravity and pressure less temperature. That is why the sun has a higher temperature also.
