An important layer of the atmosphere that blocks harmful radiation from the sun is called the?
The ozone layer. It absorbs 97-99% of potentiallly harmful ultraviolet radiation, protceting life on earth from this dangerous high frequency light from the sun.
What dark area made by an object blocks out light?
The dark area formed by an object that blocks out light is called a shadow.
Why can't you see deeper into the sun than the photosphere?
The photosphere is the layer in the sun's atmosphere that is dense enough to emit plenty of light but not so dense that the light can't escape. Below the photosphere, the gas is denser and hotter therefore radiates plenty of light, but that light cannot escape from the sun because it is blocked by the outer layers of gas. so you cannot detect light from these deeper layers.Sources: Book The Solar System by Seeds/Backman (7th Edition) P.143
What happens on the photosphere?
The photosphere is the visible layer of the sun (or any other star). Light energy and photons and other solar radiation are given off and escape the sun from the photosphere. Photo=light.
Which layer of the sun radiates light?
That would be an outer layer called the, "Photosphere".
The dense layer of the sun that blocks energy and light is the zone?
radiative zone
What are the adjectives in the sentence The short dense fur of the inner layer of the coat is light in color?
short dense inner and light
What does the ozone layer atmosphere blocks most of the ultraviolet light from the what?
It blocks the harmful UV rays. These are radiations of the sun.
What are the Building blocks into products of photosynthesis?
Light energy
Which layer is so dense that light takes a long time to pass through?
The core
What does the ozone layer of the atmosphere have to do with skin?
The ozone layer blocks out Ultra Violet (UV) light that causes sunburn, and with prolonged exposure, skin cancer.
What light does the ozone layer block out?
No, the ozone only blocks: * UV-C and more energetic light (mostly blocked by oxygen and nitrogen), * UV-B, * some slight interaction with a wavelength of blue light, * strong absorption in far infrared, and * strong interaction with some microwave frequencies. UV-A and visible light is passed through by ozone.
Characteristics of oceanic and continental crusts?
oceanic: thin, dense, basaltic rock layer.continental: thick, light, granitic rock layer.
What is the eclipic?
A lunar eclipes happens when the moon blocks the light and energy from the sun from approaching Earth.
Why is there so little undergrowth away from rivers in the amazon?
the dense canopy further away blocks light however where rivers are there is a gap in the canopy which lets light in so things can grow at lower levels.
Can fire be dense?
Fire is a combination of heat and light energy emitted by a chemical reaction, and as such it has no mass and therefore no density.
What facilitates the conversion of the building blocks into the products of photosynthesis?
light energy in the form of photons striking the chlorophyl contained in the chloroplasts
