    What is the main reason the ozone hole has become depleted?

    • Atmosphere

    • Pollution

    • Plants

    • Ultraviolet radiation

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Ultraviolet radiation
    Explanation
    Ultraviolet radiation is the main reason for the depletion of the ozone hole. Ozone depletion occurs when certain chemicals, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), are released into the atmosphere. These chemicals break down ozone molecules in the stratosphere when exposed to ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This leads to the formation of the ozone hole, which allows more harmful UV radiation to reach the Earth's surface, posing risks to human health and the environment.
