true
false
Without the Greenhouse Effect the Earth would be
warm
cold
Which of the following are greenhouse gases?
Carbon dioxide
Methane
Water vapor
All answers are correct
Why is it called "The Greenhouse Effect"?
Because greenhouse gasses protect Earth from UV radiation like a greenhouse protects plants from bad weather.
Because greenhouse gasses trap heat on Earth's surface like a greenhouse traps heat to keep plants warm.
Because greenhouse gasses reflect sunlight away from Earth like a greenhouse keeps plants in shade.
Because greenhouse gasses allow heat to pass through them like a greenhouse allows light to pass through for the plants to do photosynthesis.
What is the primary component of natural gas?
Nitrogen
Methane
Oxygen
Carbon dioxide
Which of the following is a renewable energy source?
Nuclear power
Solar power
Natural gas
Coal
What is the term for the process by which plants release water vapor into the atmosphere?
Evaporation
Condensation
Precipitation
Transpiration
