Solution

The correct option is B Stratosphere

The stratosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. It is the second layer of the atmosphere as one goes upward. Ozone is found relatively abundant in the stratosphere. It heats this layer as it absorbs energy from incoming ultraviolet radiation from the Sun.
