#Applied Microbiology

Read the following statements regarding the breakdown of the ozone layer:

Statement I: UV radiation acts upon Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the stratosphere to release active Chloride radicals.

Statement II: A single Chlorine radical is consumed after destroying one Ozone molecule and cannot participate in further reactions.

Which of the options is correct?
