Respuesta :

The ozone layer is very thin, because the ozone layer helps keep UV radiation from bombarding the Earth. The thinker you get, the lower the UV index; the thinner you get, higher the UV Index. On the map, it shows southern Africa as purple, +9 UV, which means that the ozone layer is very thin and not much ozone is stopping the radiation from bombarding the surface.
