Ozone Layer Depletion starts at 10 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Ozone Layer Depletion. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 10

Explain how ozone depletion affects marine ecosystems.
Explain why ozone is considered both 'good' and 'bad' depending on its location in the atmosphere.
Explain why the ozone layer is thinner over the poles, especially Antarctica.
Explain why the reduction of ozone-depleting substances is important for future generations.
Name one alternative to CFCs that is less harmful to the ozone layer.
