Chlorofluorocarbons are a class of organic compounds that were used as propellants in the late 20th century. The problem with CFC's is that they attack the ozone layer, breaking it down. The weakened ozone layer is not able to stop UV light from reaching the earth, so the amount of UV light reaching the earth increases. This results in increased temperatures, and the death of vegetation.

Therefore, the answer is B.

Ultraviolet light will increase on earth's surface. It will "raise" temperatures and decrease plant populations. Actually UV rays do not increase temperature, that's wrong.

They cause mutations in several organisms as they modify their DNA. They also cause skin cancer in humans and also cataracts and sunburns.

But they don't increase temperature. That's carbon dioxide accumulation.

<span>1. A cylinder is submerged in water as illustrated in the diagram. Which of the following statements is true?

</span><span>The pressure at D is greater than at B. This is because D is trying to get back to the surface with an amount of pressure. B has less amount of pressure.

</span><span>2. A cylinder is submerged in water as illustrated in the diagram. If the area of the top and the bottom of the cylinder is the same, which of the following statements is true?

</span><span>buoyant force = (force D - force A).

Edit: If you ever notice. When you fill a sink full of water. Put a glass upside down and try forcefully to submerge it under the water it will resist. This is because of the pressure and air. The glass is less dense then water. (Also depends on the glass)</span>
