Detailed explanation-1: -Without it, life as we know it wouldn’t exist. Not only does it contain the oxygen we need to live, but it also protects us from harmful ultraviolet solar radiation. It creates the pressure without which liquid water couldn’t exist on our planet’s surface.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the absence of an atmosphere, there would be no life, wind, or fires. The temperature would range from-190 degrees celsius to 110 degrees Celsius. It would increase during the day and decrease at night.
