In which layer are normal weather processes weak but ozone chemistry and radiation absorption important?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratosphere
Option C is correct because the stratosphere is comparatively stable and contains little of the vigorous convection that drives ordinary weather in the troposphere. Its ozone layer absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation, and this absorption influences both temperature and chemical reactions. The exosphere is far too rarefied for normal weather, while the troposphere is precisely the main weather layer, so neither is the best answer.
