Consider the statements regarding this weather layer.

2) The height of the troposphere is comparatively more during the summer season

than in the winter season.

3) The height of the troposphere doesn’t get affected by the change in seasons.

Explanation:

Because of the strong convection in the Equatorial region, the tropopause is pushed upward
there by increasing the height of troposphere in the Equators while it is not the case in the
Poles.
During summer season, the air gets heated up and creates low pressure on the ground thus
increasing the pressure gradient which propels the air movements upwards and in turn
pushing the tropopause upwards.
