What are some ultra violet waves that are useful and sum ways they are dangerous?
ultraviolet light is essential for your skin to make vitamin D.


but it's also the cause of pyrimidine dimers. the light causes the DNA in your skins cells to make chemical bonds that it shouldn't be making, and when your skin cells replicate and divide, the damaged DNA may not replicate properly, leading to mutation and possible skin cancer.





ozone (O3), will absorb high frequency UV rays, using the energy to turn into oxygen gas. without it, these harmful UV rays will hit you and give you skin cancer.
