Answer: A.Santa Ana

Explanation:

This description perfectly agrees with the Santa Ana Winds (also called Santana Winds), which are due to a meteorological phenomenon that occurs between southern California and northern Baja California during autum and early winter (although they can also occur in the other seasons of the year). In this sense, strong winds are caused by high air pressure circulating clockwise at high altitudes in the Great Basin between Sierra Nevada and the Rocky Mountains (and the Mojave Desert).

It should be noted that these winds are characteristic of the region, which dry the vegetation, knock down electric utility poles and trees, and sometimes transport hot embers, being the main cause of fire spread.

hodyreva [135]

Answer: Ozone is considered as chief polluting gas.

Explanation:

The ozone is a ground level pollutant. It is a colorless gas. It causes irritation in the eyes and respiratory tract. It is one of the components of smog as it causes pollution in the atmosphere. It is produced by the two primary pollutants that are nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds when they react with the sunlight. The ozone makes the air irrespirable. It is the main cause of throat irritation, labored breath, pain in chest and also responsible for respiratory diseases. It reduces the body's ability against infection. The ozone depleting substances like aerosol, chlorofluorocarbon are widening the ozone depleting zone as halides present in these substances react with the ozone causing depletion. This allows the entry of harmful ultraviolet radiation penetrating the atmospheric layers.
