Answer: B
Correct answer: 6.5 degrees per kilometre
The environmental lapse rate averages about 6.5 degrees per kilometre through the troposphere. It is worth distinguishing from the two adiabatic rates: the dry adiabatic rate is very nearly 10 degrees per kilometre and the saturated rate around 5, and the environmental value sits between them because the real atmosphere is a mixture of conditions rather than a parcel being lifted.
