Answer:

Chlorofluorocarbons are made of carbon, chlorine, and fluorine atoms.

Explanation:

Organic compounds composed of carbon, fluorine, and chlorine are Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are non-toxic, non-flammable chemicals used in the manufacture of aerosol sprays, packing materials, as refrigerants, and as solvents.

When UV light rays strike CFC molecules in the stratosphere this results in the displacement of a chlorine atom. Then chlorine atom destroys the ozone by reacting with an ozone molecule breaking it apart.

SO, chlorofluorocarbons are made of carbon, chlorine and fluorine.

Write a paragraph 4-5 sentences as to which one you think is better sexual or asexual reproduction
jenyasd209 [6]

An experiment has dependent and independent variables. The dependent variable is the one that is being studied and responds to the independent variable.

In the given experiment, the effect of a new drug is being studied on blood pressure. Here, the blood pressure (systolic and diastolic blood pressure) is supposed to change in response to drug treatment.
