Green House Effect 1 (Core)

Green House gases

• absorb the sun's radiation and trap heat

• are good for our health

• absorb gravity and keep us attached to Earth

• expulse radiation to the sun and prevent us from getting to warm

What would be Earth's temperature without green house gases?

• Earth's temperatures would be cold, oceans would freeze

• The same, green house gases do not affect Earth's temperature

• Earth's temperature would be 90 Fahrenheit

• cold
• dead

How would Earth be different without greenhouse gases in its atmosphere?

• More heat from solar radiation would escape into space

• More solar radiation would be reflected back into space

• More solar radiatio would penetrate Earth's crust and mantle

• More heat from solar radiation would be stored in Earth's crust

About 30% of the sun's incoming energy never reaches Earth because it is....

• absorbed by the ocean
• trapped by the gravitational pull between the moon and the Earth 
• reflected back into space
• destroyed by the ozone layer
