The Ozone layer
Ozone is a form of oxygen that protects us from high-energy radiation emitted by the sun. It is found in the Earth's stratosphere and absorbs the majority of ultraviolet (UV) radiation before it reaches the Earth's surface, helping to shield living organisms from its harmful effects.
The atmosphere protects life on Earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation, warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect), and reducing temperature extremes between day and night.
The atmosphere protects living things from a lot of things. Some of these include keeping temperatures from being too hot or cold, being burned severely by the sun, and keeping oxygen in so that we can breathe.
The sun naturally gives off radiation through ultraviolet rays but the ozone layer around earth blocks most of the harmful radiation, a few years ago people using spray-cans with CFC's in them (chlorofluorocarbons) created a hole in the ozone layer over the arctic CFC's were banned but they did their damage.
It helps every people and animals to breath. It is a security Blanket for the earth. The atmosphere of Earth protects us and all living things on the earth from dangerous radiation from the sun. In addition to the light we see, the sun also gives off ultraviolet radiation. Much of it is filtered out by the atmosphere. Ultraviolet radiation can destroy living cells causing harm to our skin and leading to skin cancer. The sun's rays are important for us. They provide light and heat but they also contain dangerous rays that can harm us. The atmosphere helps to protect us.
The ozone layer protects us from the radiation of sun. This radiation is called ultraviolet radiation and is very harmful.
The protective layer in the Earth's atmosphere that shields us from harmful ultraviolet radiation is called the ozone layer. It is located in the stratosphere and absorbs most of the sun's ultraviolet radiation, protecting life on Earth from its harmful effects.
Only ozone layer protects us from the UV rays. No other substance or gas can do that.
The troposphere itself does not provide significant protection from ultraviolet (UV) rays. The ozone layer, which is located in the stratosphere, is the main layer of the atmosphere that absorbs and protects us from most of the Sun's harmful UV radiation.
No, the ozone layer primarily protects Earth from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Meteors can still penetrate Earth's atmosphere and reach the surface regardless of the presence of the ozone layer.
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful effects of radiation. In absence of ozone there would be big problems to all living organisms. Ozone is denoted by O3 .
The molecule formed is ozone. It is present as the ozone layer.
The ozone layer protects us from UV rays. These are ultraviolet rays that are very harmful.
The Ozone layer (high up in the atmosphere), this layer is both created by the action of ultraviolet light (from the Sun) on the oxygen molecules in the atmosphere and shields the biosphere from that same ultraviolet radiation.
The ozone layer shields us from ultraviolet radiation.
It protects us from the harmful Ultraviolet radiations of the sun.
The ozone layer absorbs ultraviolet light and protects us from its harmful effects.
