Apes Greenhouse Effect

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

Which are considered Greenhouse Gasses?

• Sodium Chloride, Sodium dioxide, methanicane, and other gases in the air are considered Greenhouse Gases

• Sodium Choride and smoky gasses

• Water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and other gases in the air

• Oxygen and Triglyceride

Which of the following best describes the greenhouse effect?

• The cooling effect that occurs when solar radiation is reflected by the Earth's surface.

• The warming effect that occurs when gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun.

• The process by which plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

• The increase in Earth's temperature due to excessive use of fossil fuels.

The greenhouse effect is due to

• the absorption and reradiation of infrared radiation by the atmosphere

• the reflection of ultraviolet radiation by the atmosphere

• the absorption of ultraviolet radiation by the atmosphere

• the reflection of infrared radiation from Earth's surface

What does this diagram illustrate?

• Ozone Layer

• The Greenhouse Effect

• Ultraviolet Radiation

• Layers of the atmosphere

What role do forests play in mitigating climate change?

• They increase the albedo effect by reflecting sunlight.

• They act as carbon sinks, absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere.

• They contribute to higher temperatures by releasing oxygen.

• They have no role in mitigating climate change.

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.
