If UV wasn't absorbed, then it would enter the earth. There would be no life then as UV would have destroyed everything.

Does the thermosphere absorb ultraviolet?
The ozone layer absorbs ultraviolet radiation. The ozone layer is in the stratosphere. So, the thermosphere does not absorb radiation.
What does the ozne layer in the stratosphere absorb?
Sun's harmful ultraviolet rays.
Which gases absorb ultraviolent radiation?
The gas which absorb ultraviolet radiation is ozone. It absorbs the harmful Uv radiations from the sun.
What do the phosphors inside fluorescent bulbs absorb to create a glow?
Ultraviolet Radiation.
Does carbon dixoide absorb ultraviolet radiation?
False, Ozone absorbs UV.
Does the thermosphere absorb ultraviolet?

Ultraviolet Radiation.
Does carbon dixoide absorb ultraviolet radiation?
False, Ozone absorbs UV.
What is absorbed by OZONE in the statosphere?
OZONE in stratosphere helps to absorb the harmful ultraviolet radiations coming from sun. These are very harmful high frequency waves. This ozone is present as ozone layer in the stratosphere.
Which gas is the kind of oxygen that you breathe and can absorb ultraviolet radiation?
Ozone absorbs UV, but is toxic to breath!
The amount of ultraviolet radiation hitting the Earth's surface is greatly reduced by which gas in the atmosphere?
Short wavelength radiation such as Ultraviolet fall to absorption spectrum band of Ozone. Ozone absorb UV and re-emitted the radiation in the range of infrared or thermal range radiation.
What gases in the atmosphere absorb infrared radiation and Which gases absorb ultraviolet?
Some of the gases found in our atmosphere which absorb infrared light are: carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor. Gases found in our atmosphere which absorb ultraviolet light are ozone (O3) and oxygen gas (O2).
How does ozone protect us from ultraviolent radiation?
Ozone in stratosphere helps to absorb the UV rays. These are the harmful rays of the sun.
How does the ozone absorb ultraviolet light?
The ozone layer absorbs the UV radiation. These are highly fatal for life on earth.
Which layer of earth's atmosphere contains a gas that absorbs ultraviolet radiation?
All parts of the atmosphere contain gases that absorb UV-B and more energetic radiation. All parts of our atmosphere pass UV-A.
