Solution

Troposphere

Explanation:

The troposphere is the lowest and densest layer of the atmosphere. It contains about 75% of the total air mass and most of the water vapor, clouds, and weather events. Air pressure and temperature decrease with height in this layer. It extends up to about 8–16 km from the Earth's surface.
