The damage to ozone layer is done by halogens such as chlorine n bromine. But halogens are very reactive so they are unlikely to reach the ozone layer directly.

Instead the damage is done by atomization of halogen-containing substances, such as halocarbon refrigerants<span>, </span>solvents<span>, </span>propellants, and foam-blowing agents. Their<span> chemical names are </span>chlorofluorocarbon <span>(CFCs), </span>freons and<span> </span>halons<span>.</span>

It can be from Chlorine and Bromine. These two chemicals created are highly popular and deplete the ozone layer at an uncomfortable. This is also known as ODS. (ozone-depleting substances) Basically all that happens is these chemicals strip atoms apart. Thus depleting the ozone layer.

I hope this is the answer you were looking for and that it helps!! :)

In a given population of Drosophila, curly wings (c) is recessive to the wild-type condition of straight wings (c+). You isolate
bixtya [17]

Answer:

B) 300

Explanation:

There are two types of alleles present for wing type in this population of Drosophila, c and c+. Various combinations of these two alleles will produce different phenotypes.

c+c+ : straight wings = 45

c+c: straight wings = 70

cc: curly wings = 35

Total flies = 150

Each fly has one gene with two alleles for wing type. Hence 150 flies will have 300 alleles in the gene pool.

padilas [110]

All of life can be divided into three major clades because it is believed that all branches of the tree of life have the same evolutionary origin.

<h3>What is evolution?</h3>

Evolution is descendence with modification, which generally is due to the process of natural selection.

Evolution indicates that all organisms derive from an ancestral organism (it is related to the cell theory).

In conclusion, all of life can be divided into three major clades because it is believed that all branches of the tree of life have the same evolutionary origin.

Which can not take place during a chemical reaction
Oksanka [162]

In a chemical reaction, only the atoms present in the reactants can end up in the products. No new atoms are created, and no atoms are destroyed. In a chemical reaction, reactants contact each other, bonds between atoms in the reactants are broken, and atoms rearrange and form new bonds to make the products.
