In which layer is ozone a beneficial shield, while near the surface ozone can be a pollutant?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratosphere
The ozone layer is concentrated mainly in the stratosphere, where ozone absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation and protects living organisms. Near the ground, ozone is formed through photochemical reactions involving pollutants and can irritate the lungs, so it is a harmful component of smog. Thus option A correctly identifies the protective atmospheric layer.
