Ozone being a pollutant at ground level and protective at upper level explains which principle?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The effect of an atmospheric element can depend on its location
The governing concept is that an atmospheric substance may have different effects according to altitude and location. Stratospheric ozone absorbs much harmful ultraviolet radiation and protects living organisms, whereas ground-level ozone is a pollutant that can irritate the respiratory system and damage vegetation. Therefore option A is correct. The other choices incorrectly claim that ozone is always beneficial, harmless or restricted to oceans.
