Science Folio Chapter 5 B6D5E1 Title: Importance of maintaining the cleanliness of air Introduction The atmosphere of Earth is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by Earth’s gravity. The atmosphere protects life on earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation‚ warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect)‚ and reducing temperature extremes between day and night. One of the most important factors drawing international attention which is

OSI Protocol Hierarchy Session Layer The session layer is the fifth among the seven layers of the Open System Interconnections (OSI) model. It resides above the transport layer and below the presentation layer‚ and provides “value added" services to the underlying transport layer services. The session layer (along with the presentation layer) add services to the transport layer that are likely to be of use to applications‚ so that each application doesn ’t have to provide its own implementation

Developmental biology Embryonic Induction & its role in The Development of the Vertebrate Eye The migration of cells is important during many stages of development‚ from the early events of gastrulation to the formation of the nervous system during morphogenesis. Among other processes‚ cell movement involves cell o cell interactions and cell to substrate interactions. These phenomena are largely dependent on the changing patterns of cell adhesion. As the migrating cell travels it continuously

relationship between the hole in the ozone layer and global warming we must first understand what they are. The hole in the ozone layer is mainly over Antarctica but can sometimes be seen over the North Pole. The ozone depletion is caused by CFCs that were released by aerosol cans and refrigerates before they were banned in 1996. Yet these chemicals don’t disappear right away they can stay in our atmosphere for over fifty years causing the molecules of the ozone layer to breakdown creating a hole. Global

The ozone layer protects the Earth from the ultraviolet rays sent down by the sun. If the ozone layer is depleted by human action‚ the effects on the planet could be catastrophic. Ozone is present in the stratosphere. The stratosphere reaches 30 miles above the Earth‚ and at the very top it contains ozone. The suns rays are absorbed by the ozone in the stratosphere and thus do not reach the Earth. | | | | | | The Ozone Layer Over Time. Image Credit: Institute for Studies in Development

Why is our Ozone Layer is Being Destroyed? Ozone breaks down in the ozone layer in the following major ways: * N2O* encounters water vapor‚ and can no longer help form ozone. * Ozone absorbs UV-C or UV-B and most of it will break back down to oxygen. * Ozone has a natural half-life‚ and decays spontaneously with time and temperature back to oxygen. * Ozone encounters water vapor‚ and forms hydrogen peroxide. * Ozone encounters a photocatalyst (like CFC‚ HCFC‚ Halon)‚ and is

Well that would be the ozone layer. Without the ozone layer the sun would burn many different things up on
