What is the role of gravity in maintaining the atmospheric layer around Earth ? Please put a simple explanation Thank you !

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand what gravity is. Gravity in its simplest form can be best visualized as a force of attraction, that pulls all objects that have a mass towards itself.

It is usually exerted by an object with a larger mass and felt by objects with smaller masses.

Putting this into context, the earth exerts a gravitational pull on all substances with masses, which are around it. This includes the oceans, birds, airplanes, clouds, and even gasses in the atmosphere. The atmospheric gasses may be light enough to float, but they can't go very far, since gravity is constantly tugging at them. This keeps the gasses that make up our atmosphere, within a reasonable radius, which is very close to the earth. In a nutshell, gravity prevents them from floating away into outer space.

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
