• 1. 
    This process is functional in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere

  • lightning
  • deforestation
  • burning of fossil fuels
  • photosynthesis
  • 2. 
    Mainly, Ozonosphere is depleted by

  • CFCs
  • excess CO
  • ozone
  • excess CO
  • 3. 
    This is not a possible adverse effect of global warming

  • sea level rise
  • an increase of UVB radiation
  • retreat of glaciers
  • extraordinary weather patterns
  • 4. 
    Correct descending order of relative contribution of various greenhouse gases to total global warming is

  • carbon dioxide; methane; CFCs; nitrous oxide
  • carbon dioxide; methane; nitrous oxide; CFCs
  • carbon dioxide; CFCs; nitrous oxide; methane
  • carbon dioxide; CFCs; methane; nitrous oxide
  • 5. 
    CFCs have a continuing effect on the ozone layer as

  • they are efficiently absorbed by atmospheric water vapours
  • they are being produced in increasing amounts all over the world
  • Cl atoms formed by them are used up in reactions causing degradation of the ozone
  • Cl atoms formed by them only act as catalysts in reactions causing degradation of the ozone
  • 6. 
    CFCs are crucial in global warming along with their role in ozone depletion as it

  • is known for destroying ozone, which cools the earth
  • blocks ultraviolet-B radiation
  • absorbs solar radiation
  • absorbs earthshine in 10 micron region
  • 7. 
    Which of the following is not a major greenhouse gas?

  • ozone
  • water vapour
  • methane
  • carbon dioxide
  • 8. 
    Ultraviolet radiations from sunlight cause a reaction producing

  • carbon monoxide
  • ozone
  • fluorides
  • sulphur dioxide
  • 9. 
    Surplus of atmospheric carbon dioxide causes an increase in the greenhouse effect as carbon dioxide

  • is opaque to infrared rays
  • is not opaque to infrared rays
  • precipitates dust in the atmosphere
  • reduce atmospheric pressure
  • 10. 
    Checking of re radiating heat by atmospheric carbon dioxide, dust, methane, ozone is known as

  • solar effect
  • radioactive effect
  • ozone layer
  • greenhouse effect
