163. Ozone depletion in the stratosphere will cause

A. increased incidence of skin cancer
B. forest tires
C. global warming
D. none of these
✅ The correct answer is option A.
Ozone depletion occurs when chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and halons—gases formerly found in aerosol spray cans and refrigerants—are released into the atmosphere. CFCs and halons cause chemical reactions that break down ozone molecules, reducing ozone’s ultraviolet radiation-absorbing capacity.
