First of all the ozone layer is there to protect us from the suns most harmful UV rays
The ultra violet rays from the sun are absorbed by the ozone layer because of the gas present in it(O3)
If the ozone layer is depleted by harmful gases like Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), freon, etc., the uv rays enters the troposphere and affects living beings and causes diseases like skin cancer.
The ozone protects us from deadly types of UV that we would normally be protected against. This kind damages your skin and deeper tissue's DNA causing various types of cancer. Basically, we'd all die of cancer.
Well not die of cancer, but we'd burn to death. The Earth and all of its inhabitants would burn because the Sun's powerful UV rays would come at us and we'd have no protection. Cancer happens now while we still have 80 - 95% protection from the sun's UV rays because of the ozone layer. Without the ozone layer, the rays would literally fry us.
With no ozone, ultraviolet rays (UV-B specifically) are easily able to penetrate the earth's atmosphere and exposure to UV-B rays has been linked to the increased occurrence of cancer, cataracts, mutation, and decreases in crop yields and loss of arable land. This affects Man and all DNA-based life on the surface of the Earth.
The conditions that would be needed to have this situation occur though are a complete lack of oxygen in our atmosphere and/or the lack of sunlight. Should either of these conditions happen, life on the planet would be extinct. The primary answer is that we would be dead before the ozone was gone.
Ozone mostly occurs in the stratosphere, which is the second layer of Earth's atmosphere. This layer is located above the troposphere and extends from about 10 to 50 kilometers above the Earth's surface. Ozone in the stratosphere plays a crucial role in absorbing ultraviolet radiation from the sun, protecting life on Earth from its harmful effects.
Most of the radiation absorbed in Earth's atmosphere is absorbed in the ozone layer, which is a region of the stratosphere that contains a high concentration of ozone molecules. Ozone absorbs ultraviolet radiation from the sun, protecting life on Earth from its harmful effects.
Atmosphere. Ozone is formed by interaction between oxygen in the atmosphere, and UV-C from the Sun.
The atmosphere acts as a protective barrier, regulating temperature and providing the air we breathe. The ozone layer, located in the stratosphere, absorbs and shields the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun, protecting living organisms from its damaging effects.
Ozone is a naturally occurring gas in the stratosphere, where it plays a vital role in absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation. However, in the lower atmosphere, ozone is considered a pollutant as it is a key component of smog and can have adverse effects on human health and the environment.
If ozone is destroyed, there will be no life on earth. Also the temperature of earth will increase.
ozone
The ozone layer is present in stratosphere region of the atmosphere thus, the ozone layer is depleted in this layer only. It is destroyed by the harmful CFC's released into the atmosphere.
Ozone production occours in stratosphere. It is present as ozone layer.
When ozone is destroyed, UV rays will enter the earth. They are harmful and fatal for life on earth.
just make becky sit on it :)
The amount of ozone in atmosphere determine s the % of solar radiation that will be absorbed. The absorbtion of radiation is proportional to the concentration of ozone.
Ozone in upper atmosphere is not harmful. No harmful effects are associated with it.
The effects of ozone layer being destroyed are adverse. It causes the fatal UV to interact with humans.
If ozone is destroyed, there will be no life on earth. Also the temperature of earth will increase due to global warming.
If the ozone is destroyed, it will cause mass extinction. Mankind will perish.
The ozone layer present in the stratospheric region of the atmosphere is being destroyed by certain chemicals. These chemicals are CFCs.
