Question:

Name the constituent radiation of electromagnetic spectrum which is absorbed from sun light by ozone layer.​

Answer:

Ultraviolet ray is the constituent radiation of electromagnetic spectrum which is absorbed from sun light by ozone layer.​

The ozone layer is situated between the stratosphere and the troposphere. It is just below the stratosphere and just above the tropopause. It is thick layer of O₃ of all about 40 km from the tropopause. It acts as a protective covering on the earth's atmosphere and saves us from the harmful ultraviolet ray and x-rays coming from the sun. It bounches back the ultraviolet rays and x-rays while they try to enter to the earth's atmosphere.
