Does the ozone protect us from meteors and things like that?
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.
Which 2 layers protect us?
The ozone layer protects us from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, while the atmosphere (specifically the troposphere) acts as a protective blanket by regulating temperature and providing oxygen for us to breathe.
Why is ozone in the stratosphere good?
Ozone in the stratosphere is good because it forms the ozone layer, which helps protect life on Earth by absorbing most of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This UV radiation can cause skin cancer, cataracts, and other health issues if not absorbed by the ozone layer.
How does the atmosphere protect us from sunburn?
The atmosphere filters out most of the harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, especially the most damaging UV-B rays. Oxygen and ozone molecules in the atmosphere absorb and scatter this radiation, reducing the amount that reaches the Earth's surface and thus helps protect us from sunburn.
How does stratospheric ozone absorb ultraviolet radiation?
Nitrogen breaks down into atoms when it absorbs UV-C or more energetic radiation. Oxygen breaks down into atoms when it absorbs UV-C or more energetic radiation. Ozone breaks down into atoms when it absorbs UV-B or more energetic radiation.
What type of radiation does the ozone protect us from?
Ultraviolet radiation.
How does the ozone protect us from harmful radiation?
I like apples.
Does the ozone layer protect us from UV radiation?
ummm...........cows!
How does the stratosphere protect us from UV B radiation?
Ozone absorbs it.
How does the ozone protect us from ultaviolet radiation?
Ozone absorbs the UV rays. These are harmful radiations of the sun.
How does ozone protect us from harmful radiation that oxygen cannot?
Oxygen cannot absorb UV-B, and ozone can.
Why does stratospheric ozone protect us from radiation and oxygen dioxide cannot?
Stratospheric ozone is good ozone. It has the property to absorb UV rays.
How stratosphere protect us from dangerous ultraviolet radiation of the sun?
It contains ozone layer. Ozone absorbs the UV radiations.
How does ozone protect us from ultraviolet radiation?
Ozone blocks the UV rays. UV rays are harmful rays of the sun.
What Ozone gas in The stratosphere protect us from?
It protects the Earth from most of the Sun's radiation.
Which layer of the earth protects t he earth from ultraviolent sun radiation?
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. It filters out these harmful radiations. It is present in stratosphere.
What is produced to protect us from harmful substances?
The ozone layer protects us from the sun's harmful radiation.
