sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

protected; increase

Explanation:

Ozone is composed of trioxygen which is highly reactive gas compared to dioxygen. Ozone layer is present in stratosphere and troposphere and protect the humans from ultraviolet radiations but it may be toxic if inhaled. Ozone can be broken down into molecular oxygen by chlorine and bromine atoms.

A hole was discovered in ozone layer in 1982 and scientist believed that it could be dangerous for human health. The compounds involved in depletion of ozone are mainly Chlorofluorocarbons (CFS) and (HFCS). Then a global agreement was signed in 1987 which leads to prohibition of use of all chemicals that are involved in depletion of ozone layer. The problem of ozone depletion is solved by the agreement and ozone hole started to recover it from 2000.

But recent reports showed that the alternative chemicals used to protect the depletion of ozone layer began to trap the heat inside the earth like greenhouse effect. Now scientists are in search of chemical that can prevent both ozone depletion as well as global warming.

Given that our model finch population is capable of rapid evolution in response to a changing environment, explain why you think
SIZIF [17.4K]

Darwin's finches are a traditional illustration of an adaptive radiation. Their ancestor came on the Galapagos Island about two million years ago. With time Darwin's finches have developed into fifteen different species separated on the basis of beak shape, body size, and feeding and song behavior.  

The population of finches possesses the tendency of evolving rapidly in response to a changing environment. However, they can also get extinct in condition if the weather fluctuates too briskly between the dry and wet seasons. This would most likely take place due to the immigration of genes and mutations within the genes that are conducted on to the next generations.
