The correct option is D

Oxygen


The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the earth's surface. When the sun's energy reaches the earth's atmosphere, some of it is reflected back to space and the rest is absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide are the common greenhouse gases.
