Which layer of the atmosphere is responsible for tittering out ultraviolet radiation from the Sun?
ماحول کی کون سی تہہ سورج سے الٹرا وائلٹ شعاعوں کو باہر نکالنے کے لیے ذمہ دار ہے؟
Answer: Stratosphere
Explanation
The stratosphere prevents UV rays from coming surface of the Earth
90% of the ozone in the atmosphere is occupied by the Stratosphere.
Ozone molecules are constantly formed and destroyed in the stratosphere
Additional Information
Ozone is a molecule that contains three oxygen atoms
The atmosphere can be divided into five layers:
- Troposphere (all weather occurs within this layer)
- Stratosphere (ozone layer absorbs UV rays)
- Mesosphere (coldest layer of the atmosphere)
- Thermosphere (radiowaves transmitted from the Earth and reflected by this layer)
- Exosphere (molecules and atoms escape)
