This is a very interesting question from Ozone Layer Depletion in section Social Issues and the Environment of Energy Management

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) Atmosphere above Antarctica

To explain I would say: Antarctica was the first place where scientist comes to known about the thinning of ozone layer. In the early 1980s, scientists have detected a thinning of the ozone layer in the atmosphere above Antarctica.
