Question

matching 1 point the more damaging kinds of radiation are blocked by either earths magnetic field or absorbed by the ozone layer. indicate how the following kinds of uv light are blocked. blocked by ozone mostly passes through the ozone layer mostly blocked by ozone uv-a uv-b uv-d uv-c

Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we recall the properties of different UV radiations and ozone layer interaction:

• UV - A: Mostly passes through the ozone layer (it has longer wavelengths and is less absorbed by ozone).
• UV - B: Mostly blocked by ozone (ozone absorbs a significant portion of UV - B, but some still gets through, so "mostly blocked").
• UV - C: Blocked by ozone (ozone strongly absorbs UV - C, preventing most of it from reaching the Earth's surface).
• UV - D: Blocked by ozone (similar to UV - C, ozone blocks UV - D effectively).

Now we match each UV type:

• UV - A: Mostly passes through the ozone layer
• UV - B: Mostly blocked by ozone
• UV - C: Blocked by ozone
• UV - D: Blocked by ozone

Answer:

UV - A: Mostly passes through the ozone layer
UV - B: Mostly blocked by ozone
UV - C: Blocked by ozone
UV - D: Blocked by ozone
