A: CO2
B: Ozone
C: CFC
D: PAN

The answer is: B

Explanation

Ozone (O3) is a protective layer in the stratosphere that shields the Earth's surface from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It acts as a protectant by absorbing most of the Sun's UV radiation and preventing it from reaching the troposphere, where it can cause various health and environmental issues.
