Nitrogen, Oxygen (UV-C and more energetic), and Ozone (UV-B and more energetic)
Most ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer in the stratosphere. Not all of these rays are absorbed though, which is why sunscreen should be worn when outside.
Most of the incoming UV rays are absorbed by Ozone. The ozone is a gas which reacts with UV. They decompose and form oxygen.

Ozone
Ozone protects us. It is present as the ozone layer.
Ozone in the atmosphere blocks most of the UV radiation from the Sun... Without it's protection - the planet would overheat.
Ozone layer contains ozone molecules in abundance. These molecules decompose themselves to absorb ozone.

Ozone is the gas. This is present as ozone layer.
It does, but in very small amounts because it is absorbed by Earths atmosphere. The ozonosphere blocks most of the UV radiation from striking the surface of earth.
Not as ultraviolet; the radiation is emitted as infrared radiation.
Not all the radiation is absorbed in the earth's atmosphere called the troposphere.

Ozone is (relatively) opaque to ultraviolet light.

The form of radiation shielded by atmosphere is Ultraviolet. The Ultraviolet is a part of radiation released by our star sun.
