← ScienceWhich outcome results when intense UV radiation cleaves molecular oxygen?
A)Ozone layer concentration increases locally✓
B)Increased nitrogen oxide production occurs
C)Global temperature decreases abruptly
D)Increased carbon dioxide sequestration results
💡 Explanation
The increase of local ozone concentration occurs because UV radiation causes photodissociation, producing single oxygen radicals that combine with O2. Therefore, more ozone is created, rather than affecting nitrogen oxides or global temperature, within the local ozone layer.
