The "ozone" layer is particularly important for absorbing UV rays since the molecular bonds in ozone vibrate at the frequency of UV radiation and absorb it quite well. The ozone layer lies near the bottom of the stratosphere.
Note that UV radiation spans a range of frequencies. UV-A is the least absorbed/reflected UV radiation. Mostly the atmosphere lets it through. UV-B is absorbed mostly by the ozone in the atmosphere - mostly in the ozone layer in the stratosphere, but there is ozone at all layers of the atmosphere. UV-C is absorbed by the oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere - so very little of that makes it through; the atmosphere is about 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen.
What else can I help you with?
How do the layers of the earth work together?
The various layers of atmosphere protect us. They protect us from the UV rays, Control the temperature etc.
Where does the ozone layers exsists and what does it protect us?
Ozone exists in the stratosphere. It protects us from the UV rays of the sun.
Why are the layers of earth important?
Different layers of atmosphere protect us. They do it by blocking the unwanted radiations of the sun.
How do the sun rays protect us from cosmic radiation?
The sun's rays create a protective barrier around Earth called the magnetosphere. This magnetosphere deflects and traps cosmic radiation, preventing it from reaching the surface of the planet and harming living organisms.
What you called that Layers that protects us from UV rays?
The layer of the atmosphere that protects us from UV rays is called the ozone layer. It is located in the stratosphere and absorbs most of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation before it reaches the Earth's surface.

Ozone protects us from harmful UV rays, They are fatal rays of the sun.
What layers of the atmosphere protect us UV rays?
The Ozone layer in the upper Stratosphere.

Which two layers protect us out of the atmosphere?
Ozone layer protects us from UV rays. The outermost layer from meteors.
Does the ozone layers protect humans from sever tropical storms?
No, it doesn't. It protects us from the harmful UV rays.

The ozone layer protects us from UV rays. They are fatal rays of the sun.
Why does the mesosphere not protect us from the suns layers?
Mesosphere does not protect us. It is because it does not contain an ozone layer.
