When two oceanic plates converge, the denser plate will end up sinking below the less dense plate, leading to the formation of an oceanic subduction zone. Old, dense crust tends to be subduction back into the earth.

Ozone layer depletion was not noticed until 1979, while CFC’s have been around since 1920s. Why is this?
Scilla [17]

Ozone layer depletion was not noticed until 1979, while CFC’s have been around since 1920s because CFCs take time to enter the stratosphere and remain there for at least 60 years after their initial release.

Option: A

Explanation:

Ozone layer is found in stratosphere. Ozone plays a dual role in the environment. When it is in the ground surface zone it is a harmful gas but when its in the atmosphere it is a life saving layer which absorbs UV rays and protect human beings and animals from the harmful affect of poisonous gases.

Though ozone layer started depleting from 1920. But it came into notice from 1979 as CFCs take time to enter the stratosphere and remain there for at least 60 years after their initial release.
