Explanation: CFC deplet the atmosphere as it absorbs the nascent oxygen which ha formed from oxygen,when oxygen comes contact with UV rays they break and form nascent oxygen which further gets added to oxygen which forms ozone i.e O3. But the chlorofluorocarbon being emitted at very high rate and present in the atmosphere absorbs the nascent oxygen which further leads to no formation of ozone.

Depletion of one will cause many skin diseases and many organ problem
