sun rays will not penetrate the ozone layer. they enters the earths atmosphere by the radiation processes. Ozone Layer gets depleted by the action of chlorofluorocarbons which were released by automobiles and refrigerators. and that results in the entry of UV rays which are harmful for life forms. and global warming phenomena is a result of greenhouse effect which explains the phenomenon of the heat which entered Earth's atmosphere by radiation, does not completely reflected back! rather, it (heat) gets stored in the atmosphere which results in the increase in temperature of the earth! and global warming was useful upto some extent in our ancient days. It resulted in the melting of himalayan ice mountains which in turn resulted in the increase of sea level. but now, global warming has become a major headache for us!

Answer:

Student is incorrect.

Global warming is result of greenhouse effect as caused by increased level of greenhouse gases in atmosphere.

Explanation:

The student is incorrect. The solar radiations do not need ozone hole to penetrate the atmosphere. Rather, the whole layer of atmosphere is penetrable for solar radiations. Only some specific part of it such as UV rays are absorbed by ozone present in the stratosphere.

During the night, the earth's surface reflects back part of absorbed solar radiations. The greenhouse gases such as CO2, water vapor, etc. absorb the radiations reflected back by earth's surface. Since these reflected radiations do not escape to space, the earth's global temperature is increased and the process is called global warming.

Organisms in an ecosystem are interdependent. do you think humans have interdependent relationships with other organisms? explai
jeka94

Humans have an interdependent relationship with other organisms just like organisms in an ecosystem are interdependent.

<h3>How are organisms interdependent?</h3>

To be interdependent means that the involved parties are mutually dependent i.e. they are reliant on one another.

Living organisms in their natural habitat are dependent on one another for food, space, mate and other resources.

However, humans are also interdependent on other organisms for resources like food, raw materials. For example, we eat plant and flesh derived from other organisms.
