Yes, it does. Most of the UV rays are blocked.
CFC's are the products. They react with ozone to deplete it.
Ozone in stratosphere helps to absorb the UV rays. These are the harmful rays of the sun.
The ozone layer, composed of ozone molecules (O3), absorbs and filters out most of the harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun in the stratosphere. This layer acts as a protective barrier for life on Earth by preventing excessive UV radiation from reaching the surface.
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. It filters out these harmful radiations. It is present in stratosphere.
Ozone (O3) in the stratosphere absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation, particularly UV-B and UV-C. This absorption plays a crucial role in protecting Earth's surface from harmful UV radiation. Additionally, certain greenhouse gases like methane and nitrous oxide can also absorb some UV radiation in the upper atmosphere.
The CFC's block the ozone layer by destroying it. The destruction is caused by the reaction of gases with ozone.
Ozone (O3) is the gas in the stratosphere that helps protect Earth from ultraviolet radiation by absorbing and filtering out harmful UV rays. This ozone layer acts as a shield that helps to prevent damage to living organisms from excessive UV exposure.
CFC's are the reason for depletion ozone layer. CFC's convert the ozone to oxygen and render it useless to block UV radiation's.
The ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere filters out about 95 percent of UV radiation from the sun. However, it is important to note that some UV radiation still reaches the Earth's surface, especially in areas where the ozone layer is depleted.
Ozone layer protects us from UV rays. It is present as the ozone layer.
The ozone block only the UV part. Rest other is left to escape.
The upper atmosphere is also known as the stratosphere. The gas that can block ultra-violet radiation in the stratosphere (a.k.a. upper atmosphere) is ozone.
