Solution
- The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth's surface.
- When the rays of the sun reach earth, some of the radiation is absorbed by the earth’s atmosphere causing an increase in the temperature of the surface and the rest of it is reflected back by the earth.
- This process makes Earth much warmer than it would be without an atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is one of the processes that makes Earth a comfortable place to live.
- Gases like Carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, water vapour causes greenhouse effect .
Additional information:
Excessive increase in temperature due to greenhouse effect is responsible for global warming.
