Under the ozone layer is the stratosphere, a layer of Earth's atmosphere that extends from about 10 to 50 kilometers above the planet's surface. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, which plays a crucial role in protecting life on Earth by absorbing and filtering out harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.

What is the breakdown of the ozone layer called?
See "What is causing the depletion of the ozone layer?"
How halons causes ozone depeletion?
Halons contain chlorine and bromine atoms which, when released into the atmosphere, can react with ozone molecules. These reactions lead to the breakdown of ozone molecules, causing ozone depletion. Halons are potent ozone-depleting substances and are now heavily regulated under international agreements to help protect the ozone layer.
How the relationship between CFC and depletion of the ozone layer?
CFC under UV irradiation produce chlorine radicals which contribute to the deomposition of ozone.
Where is the hole in the ozone located?
The hole in the ozone layer is located over Antarctica. It is an area of exceptionally depleted ozone concentration in the stratosphere.
What type of refrigerant is the most harmful to stratospheric ozone?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are the most harmful refrigerants to stratospheric ozone. When released into the atmosphere, they degrade ozone molecules, leading to the formation of the ozone hole. These compounds have been phased out under the Montreal Protocol due to their detrimental impact on the ozone layer.
Why is the ozone layer under threat?
The ozone layer is under threat due to the continues use of CFCs. These CFC react with ozone and cause a number of problems.
What continent is under the hole in the ozone?
it is Australia
You can form ozone under certain conditions?
Yes.

What continent lies under the hole in the ozone layer?
I think it is either Australia or Antarctica

Cfcs break down in the stratosphere under the influence of?
Light , release Cl which damages ozone .
Does the ozone layer protect organisms from CFC?
Yes, it does. Organisms without it would fall under UV.
How is ozone in the stratosphere the same as the troposphere?
No. The ozone is stratosphere is good ozone. The ozone in troposphere is bad ozone.
