Why are small quantities of chlorofluorocarbons so harmful to the ozone layer? a. The chlorofluorocarbons act like ultraviolet radiation causing large amount of ozone to be produced. b. The chlorine from the chlorofluorocarbons reacts with free molecules of oxygen causing a stop in ozone production. c. Free oxygen atoms can replace the chlorine in chlorine monoxide, releasing a free atom of chlorine which can then recombine with an oxygen atom in ozone, destroying more ozone. d. Chlorofluorocarbons absorb ultraviolet radiation, preventing the formation of ozone.

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them.
