प्रश्न

The small ozone layer on top of the stratosphere is crucial for human survival. Why?

टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर

The small ozone layer on the top of the atmosphere is crucial for human survival because it absorbs harmful ultraviolet radiations present in sunlight and prevents it from reaching the Earth’s surface.
