Nitrogen and Oxygen stop UV-C and more energetic radiation. When they do this, they are broken down into constituent atoms.
N2 + energetic light -> 2N
O2 + energetic light -> 2O
Some of the oxygen forms ozone (eventually). Ozone is broken apart by absorbing UV-B and more energetic radiation.
O3 + energetic light -> O2 + O
See "Is UV radiation filtered out by the ozone layer?"
Ozone layer yes blocks radiation. These radiations are from sun and are called UV's.
CFC's are involved in ozone depletion. they react with ozone and deplete them.
The ozone layer acts as a shield. It absorbs the UV rays and prevents them from entering.
Ozone blocks UV rays by decomposing it into oxygen. It is very important process.
When UV hits ozone, it absorbs. It is destroyed and does not travel farther.
The stratospheric ozone protects the biosphere. It absorbs the UV rays of the sun.
Reduction of Uv rays can only be done by the ozone layer. Thus if we make steps to protect the ozone layer, there will be reduction of uv rays entering the earth.
Harmful UV rays were always there. But we were protected from them by ozone layer.
Ozone layer blocks the UV rays. It does it in the ozone layer.
Sunscreen contains special compounds called SPF. They protect us from UV rays.
The ozone layer protects us from UV rays. They are fatal rays of the sun.
Yes the ozone layer protects us from uv (ultra violent) rays
The stratospheric ozone protects the biosphere. It absorbs the UV rays of the sun.
The job of ozone layer to protect us from UV rays. These are fatal rays of sun.
Ozone layer can protect you. It is present in the stratosphere.
Reduction of Uv rays can only be done by the ozone layer. Thus if we make steps to protect the ozone layer, there will be reduction of uv rays entering the earth.
Harmful UV rays were always there. But we were protected from them by ozone layer.
The ozone protects us from UV rays. These are fatal rays for life on earth.
Ozone blocks the UV rays. They are the harmful rays of the sun.
The atmosphere protect us from UV. The main reason behind it is ozone present as ozone layer.
It does protect the biosphere as it contains ozone layer. It protects us from UV rays.
Ozone is present in ozone layer. It absorbs most of the harmful UV rays of the sun.
