Greenhouse

The energy from the absorbed radiation heats the gases in the air and the gases hold the heat in the Earth’s atmosphere. This process is called the

• Electromagnetic Waves

• Greenhouse Effect

• Heat Transfer

• El Niño

What is the Greenhouse Effect?

• Earth is warmed when solar radiation is absorbed by the Earth.

• Earth is warmed when gases in the atmosphere trap the sun's heat.

• Earth is cooled when solar radiation is reflected off the clouds.

• Earth is cooled when gases in the atmosphere trap the sun's heat.

The ​ (a)   is the process by which gases in the atmosphere absorb and radiate heat.

• ozone layer

• greenhouse effect

• atmosphere

• temperature

Increased carbon dioxide may cause global warming by

• reducing the amount of oxygen in the air.

• allowing more sunlight into the atmosphere.

• trapping more heat in the atmosphere.

• reflecting more sunlight from clouds.

How are a greenhouse and Earth's atmosphere most alike?

• Both prevent harmful radiation from reaching Earth.

• Both trap heat inside and prevent it from escaping.

• Both lower the temperature to be suitable for life

• Both contain large amounts of carbon dioxide
