The ozone layer is most effective in which height zone?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: About 15 to 35 kilometres
The correct answer is A because the greatest concentration of atmospheric ozone is found in the lower and middle stratosphere, broadly about 15–35 kilometres above Earth. Ozone absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation. The lower 0–2 km is part of the troposphere, while the much higher ranges contain thinner gases and are not the main ozone zone.
