The ozone layer does not reflect the sun's rays because it is made up of ozone molecules that absorb and block harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. The ozone layer acts as a protective shield, absorbing UV rays and preventing them from reaching the Earth's surface where they can cause harm to living organisms.
UV rays are mainly absorbed by the ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere. The ozone layer acts as a protective barrier, absorbing most of the UV radiation before it reaches the Earth's surface. Some UV rays still penetrate the atmosphere and reach the Earth's surface, where they can be absorbed by air, water, and land.
Harmful UV radiation is mainly absorbed by the ozone layer, which is located in the stratosphere of the atmosphere. The ozone layer helps protect Earth by absorbing most of the sun's harmful UV radiation before it reaches the surface.
Most visible light is bounced back into space, while some of it is absorbed into the atmosphere.
The heating of the lower layer of the atmosphere from radiation absorbed by certain heat-absorbing gases is called the greenhouse effect. This process traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.
The UV radiations coming from the sun are absorbed by the layer of ozone molecules present in the stratospheric region of atmosphere. This layer is known as ozone layer.

The atmosphere and especially the ozone layer
Ultraviolet radiation is the solar radiation least absorbed by the layers of the atmosphere before reaching Earth. This is due to the ozone layer, which helps to absorb and block a significant portion of the incoming ultraviolet radiation.
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.
The ionosphere - specifically the e-layer
The heating of the lower layer of the atmosphere from radiation absorbed by certain heat-absorbing gases is called the greenhouse effect. This effect traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.
Every layer of the atmosphere changes in degree because the way solar energy is absorbed it moves downward through the atmosphere.
Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by ozone in the ozone layer. Low-energy (long wavelength) radiation, including infrared, microwave, and radio waves, is typically deflected by atmospheric particles.
