The correct answer is the option A - Ozone layer.

The ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere acts like a shield by absorbing most of the UV radiations that are emitted by the Sun.

The Stratosphere layer has many gases, but the ozone layer in it has high ozone (O3) concentrations. The ozone layer completely absorbs the Ultraviolet C radiations (UVC) and partially absorbs the UVB rays.

As the ozone layer in the stratosphere decreases, the UV radiations pass through more easily and the exposure of the Earth's surface to the radiations increases.
