Questions and Answers

What is the function of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?

  • Reflecting sunlight away from the Earth's surface
  • Trapping heat similar to the glass roof of a greenhouse (correct)
  • Absorbing excess heat from the Earth's surface
  • Creating a cooling effect on the Earth's surface

    • Why does a greenhouse stay warm inside even during the winter?

  • The glass walls trap the Sun's heat (correct)
  • The greenhouse gases release heat inside
  • The glass walls reflect the Sun's heat
  • The glass walls absorb the Sun's heat

    • How does the greenhouse effect impact Earth's nighttime temperature?

  • It leads to extreme temperature fluctuations
  • It causes a significant drop in temperature
  • It has no impact on nighttime temperature
  • It helps maintain a relatively warm temperature (correct)

    Study Notes

    Greenhouse Gases and the Greenhouse Effect

    • Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere trap heat and maintain Earth's temperature.
    • The greenhouse effect is responsible for keeping greenhouses warm inside during winter, even at cold temperatures outside.
    • The greenhouse effect impacts Earth's nighttime temperature by trapping heat and keeping the planet warm.

    Greenhouse Environment

    • The primary source of warmth for plants and air inside a greenhouse during the daytime is sunlight.
    • Greenhouses are able to maintain a warm temperature due to the trapping of heat by greenhouse gases.

    Carbon Dioxide and the Greenhouse Effect

    • Carbon dioxide is a key greenhouse gas that plays a crucial role in the greenhouse effect.

    Using Website Resources

    • To cite something from the website in a project or classroom presentation, permission from the website owner is required.
