1. At which location would sunlight have to pass through the thickest amount of atmosphere before reaching Earth’s surface?
a. At the poles  


2. Which surface exhibits the highest albedo measurement?
d. Fresh snow

1.

The correct answer is option a. At the poles.

The atmosphere is most thick at the polar region of the earth. So, when the sunlight enters at the poles, it need to penetrate the thickest amount of atmosphere.

2.

The correct answer is option d. fresh snow.

The Albedo is the measurement of the reflectivity. The Fresh snow, which forms the top layering on the ground has the highest reflectivity, so, Albedomeasurement would be highest here.
