Which rays can cause more harm if the ozone layer becomes weak?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: पराबैंगनी किरणें — Ultraviolet rays
The governing concept is ozone absorption of solar ultraviolet radiation. The stratospheric ozone layer absorbs much of the harmful UV-B and nearly all UV-C reaching Earth. If the layer becomes thinner, greater UV exposure can damage skin and eyes and harm plants and plankton. Therefore option C is correct; infrared, radio, and sound waves are not the radiation specifically shielded by ozone.
