What layer of the atmosphere contains the ozone layer that blocks most of the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun?
The ozone layer (in the stratosphere).
Which layer contains the ozone layer and what does it do?
This is the stratosphere. There is also ozone in the lower troposphere, but the ozone layer in the stratosphere contains helpful ozone that blocks much of the ultraviolet radiation. Without this layer, life on earth would be very difficult.
How would a decrease of ozone in the stratosphere affect the radiation received at earth surface?
the radiation received at th earth's surface would increase since the ozone layer acts as a powerful and natural barrier against harmful radiation.
How would a decease of ozone in the stratosphere affect the radiation received at earth's surface?
The decrease of ozone causes UV to enter the earth. These are fatal radiations of the sun.
The atmospheric layer that contains the most ozone?
This is the stratosphere. There is also ozone in the lower troposphere, but the ozone layer in the stratosphere contains helpful ozone that blocks much of the ultraviolet radiation. Without this layer, life on earth would be very difficult.

The ozone exists in which layers of the atmosphere?
This is the stratosphere. There is also ozone in the lower troposphere, but the ozone layer in the stratosphere contains helpful ozone that blocks much of the ultraviolet radiation. Without this layer, life on earth would be very difficult.
How would a decrease of ozone in the stratosphere affect the radiation received at earth's surface?
Yes it will. The UV amount will increase very much.
What happens when ozone is removed from the stratosphere?
When ozone is no more, life would not be there. Mankind would perish.
Which gas in the atmosphere protect life from the sun's harmful?
The gas in the atmosphere that protects life from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation is ozone (O3). The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere and acts as a shield, absorbing most of the UV radiation and preventing it from reaching the Earth's surface. Without ozone, excessive UV radiation would have damaging effects on living organisms.
What technology do you have to protect the earth from the sun?
This "severe burning sunlight" is ultraviolet radiation. The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, and protects Earth from this radiation. Without it, life on earth would not exist as we know it today.
How would a decrease of ozone in the stratosphere effect human life?
Less O-Zone means less radiation is absorbed from the Sun, life would end up taking in more radiation, but it depends on how severe you are talking.
What is the stratoshere?
The stratosphere is the layer above the troposphere (where we live). The ozone layer is found in the lower stratosphere. The stratosphere is the lowest layer where temperature increases with increasing altitude.
