Biology
1 answer:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The chlorine from the chlorofluorocarbons reacts with free molecules of oxygen causing a stop in ozone production. ... Free oxygen atoms can replace the chlorine in chlorine monoxide, releasing a free atom of chlorine which can then recombine with an oxygen atom in ozone, destroying more ozone.

At which type of plate boundary do tectonic plates slide past each other?
melamori03 [73]
