Answer: 4

Solution:

(i) compound responsible for ozone depletion.
(ii) Ozone layer: Protects from the Sun's radiation of wavelength
(iii) Drinking water with high nitrate can cause a potentially fatal disorder called methemoglobinemia. Methemoglobinemia is a condition in which more than one percent of the hemoglobin in red blood cells take the form of methemoglobin.
(iv) Ozone layer depletion:
(one of the reaction involved)
(v) DDT: Non-Biodegradable pollutant
(vi)The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone.
