Why is ozone among atmospheric elements linked more with long-term protection than short-term weather?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because its main role is protection of organisms from ultraviolet radiation
The governing concept is the protective function of stratospheric ozone. Ozone absorbs much of the Sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation, especially UV-B and UV-C, reducing exposure at Earth’s surface and helping protect living tissues. Its concentration and distribution are important for long-term environmental health, whereas daily weather is controlled mainly by temperature, pressure, moisture, and winds in the troposphere. Ozone is not the main atmospheric gas and does not create all rainfall, so A is correct.
