Vedclass · Answer

(D) The ozone layer is primarily found in the stratosphere. It has the potential to absorb around $97-99 \%$ of the harmful ultraviolet $(UV)$ radiation coming from the sun,which can damage life on Earth.Ozone depletion leads to the thinning of this protective layer,allowing a higher amount of harmful $UV$ radiation to reach the Earth's surface.Therefore,the statement that 'less amount of $UV$ radiation reaches the earth's surface' due to ozone depletion is incorrect.
