Solution
Green House effect→ It refers to a natural process that warms the Earth's surface, caused by various substances such as CO2 (carbon dioxide) and water vapours which lets the sun's energy reach the ground but in turn, obstructs the passage of energy to reach back to space from earth.
It extra amounts of greenhouse gases are added to the atmosphere- such as human activities, then further issues like warmer temperatures, environment destructions etc would take place.
Green house gas→ A green house gas is a gas that absorbs and emits infrared radiation.
The primary greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are water vapours, carbon dioxide(CO2), methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. These gases causes green house effect.
