Study of which layer is directly important for both ultraviolet protection and human health?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Stratosphere
The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, where ozone absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation, especially UV-B and UV-C. Reduced exposure helps protect skin, eyes and cellular material from damage. Hence option A is correct. The exosphere and mesosphere do not contain the main protective ozone concentration, while the lower thermosphere is not the layer normally identified with ozone protection.
