If the ozone layer weakens which result is more likely?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Effect of ultraviolet radiation will increase
The governing concept is atmospheric protection by stratospheric ozone. Ozone absorbs a substantial part of biologically harmful ultraviolet radiation before it reaches Earth’s surface. If the ozone layer becomes thinner, more ultraviolet radiation can pass through, increasing risks to living organisms, including skin and eye damage. Therefore option A is correct; the other choices describe unrelated or impossible atmospheric changes.
