Which of the following statements about the difference between climate change and ozone layer depletion is correct?
hard Q9 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Understand climate change and ozone depletion
Climate change involves temperature and weather pattern changes due to greenhouse gases. Ozone depletion involves thinning of ozone layer increasing UV radiation.Step 2: Analyze options
Ozone depletion increases harmful UV rays reaching Earth, while climate change affects temperature and weather. CFCs cause ozone depletion, not climate change. Sea levels rise due to climate change, not ozone depletion.Step 3: Eliminate incorrect options
Climate change is caused by CFCs, ozone depletion by greenhouse gases reverses causes. Both phenomena cause global warming directly wrongly states both cause global warming. Ozone depletion affects sea levels, climate change affects UV radiation confuses effects.Final Answer:
Ozone depletion increases UV radiation, climate change alters temperature patterns → Option BQuick Check:
Ozone depletion = UV increase, Climate change = temperature change ✅
Quick Trick: Remember ozone depletion affects UV, climate change affects temperature.
Common Mistakes:
- Confusing causes and effects of ozone depletion and climate change.
