What does this diagram illustrate?

• Ozone Layer

• The Greenhouse Effect

• Ultraviolet Radiation

• Layers of the atmosphere

The ozone layer is damaged by

• CFCs

• Increase in greenhouse gases

• Increased global temperatures

• Sulfuric and nitric acids

Why do carbon dioxide levels behave in the manner shown in the graph?

• CO₂ levels increase in winter because more gasoline is burned.

• CO₂ levels decrease in the winter because there is less photosynthesis.

• CO₂ levels increase in summer because there is more decomposition.

• CO₂ levels decrease in summer because there is more photosynthesis.
