How do the importance of the ozone layer and carbon dioxide differ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The ozone layer protects from ultraviolet radiation, while carbon dioxide is linked with heat balance
Stratospheric ozone absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation, reducing its biological impact at Earth’s surface. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that absorbs outgoing infrared radiation and participates in Earth’s heat balance; excess CO₂ can strengthen warming. Thus option A correctly distinguishes their roles. Neither substance is a main respiratory gas, an inert gas, or merely a dust particle.
