Correct option is C
The ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere absorbs most of the Sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In the western hemisphere, particularly over Antarctica, a seasonal depletion of the ozone layer occurs, known as the "ozone hole." This thinning of the ozone layer allows higher levels of UV-B radiation to reach the Earth's surface, which is directly linked to an increased risk of skin cancer due to DNA damage caused by UV radiation.
(a) Baldness: There is no direct connection between ozone layer depletion and baldness.
(b) Asthma: While air quality issues can exacerbate asthma, it is not directly linked to the ozone layer hole.
(d) Lung Cancer: Lung cancer is primarily caused by smoking and air pollution, not by ozone layer depletion.
