Answers
Explanation:
Most ozone resides in the stratosphere (a layer of the atmosphere between 10 and 40 km above us), where it acts as a shield to protect Earth's surface from the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. With a weakening of this shield, we would be more susceptible to skin cancer, cataracts and impaired immune systems
Ozone is used to deodorize air, purify water, and treat industrial wastes. Ozone is a molecule with three oxygen molecules.It is in the upper atmosphere and it protects living organisms by keeping UV rays from reaching the earth's surface.
Ozone (O3) is a triatomic, molecule, consisting of three oxygen atomsOxygen plays a critical role in respiration, the energy-producing chemistry that drives the metabolisms of most living things. We humans, along with many other creatures, need oxygen in the air we breathe to stay alive. Oxygen is generated during photosynthesis by plants and many types of microbes.
