Answer:

Green house gases like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, carbon tetra chloride, methane, sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, etc .. are responsible for Global warming and Chlorofluorocarbons and nitrides of oxygen are responsible for Ozone layer depletion.

Explanation:

One of the first things the IPCC concluded is that there are several greenhouse gases responsible for warming, and humans emit them in a variety of ways. Most come from the combustion of fossil fuels in cars, buildings, factories, and power plants. The gas responsible for the most warming is carbon dioxide, or CO2.

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other halogenated ozone depleting substances (ODS) are mainly responsible for man-made chemical ozone depletion. The total amount of effective halogens (chlorine and bromine) in the stratosphere can be calculated and are known as the equivalent effective stratospheric chlorine (EESC).

A genotype is the collection of all the genes occurring in members of a species.
lakkis [162]

A genotype is the genetic makeup if an organism. So let's say we have the freckles gene with freckles (F) being dominant and no freckles (f) being recessive. Let's also say Bob is heterozygous so his genotype for the freckles gene would be Ff. If he was homozygous dominant, he would have the genotype FF and if he was homozygous recessive, he would have the genotype ff.
