Solution

The correct option is A Only Troposphere
$C O_{2}$ is confined only to troposphere layer of atmosphere. This layer is located at 10 km above the sea level.
$C O_{2}$ forms about 0.03 per cent by volume of the atmosphere.
Ozone layer is majorly found in stratosphere.
Atomic oxygen, nitrogen and helium are the main components of Thermosphere.
