Weakening of the ozone layer increases danger from which rays?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Ultraviolet rays
Stratospheric ozone absorbs a large part of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation, especially UV-B and nearly all UV-C. If the ozone layer becomes thinner, more ultraviolet radiation can reach Earth’s surface, increasing risks such as sunburn, skin damage, eye problems, and harm to some organisms. Therefore option A is correct; radio and sound waves are not the main danger addressed here.
