Answer: Heat

Step-by-step explanation:

The troposphere refers to the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. Majority of the mass in the atmosphere can be found in the troposphere.

It should be noted that heat isn't a reactant. The production of ozone in the troposphere is through chemical reactions that involves nitrogen oxide, hydrocarbons, and other gases that occurs natural in the presence of sunlight.
