In which layer is ozone mostly found in the atmosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratosphere
Most atmospheric ozone is concentrated in the stratosphere, particularly in the region commonly called the ozone layer, roughly 15–35 kilometres above Earth. It absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation. A small amount of ozone can occur in the troposphere, but the mesosphere and exosphere are not where the main ozone concentration is found. Thus, option D is correct.
