How does a greenhouse look like and why?
Like a glass house - so sunlight can get in.
Why are greenhouse gases similar to a Greenhouse?
Like in a greenhouse, greenhouse gasses let radiation from the sun reach Earth (the 'inside' of the greenhouse) but won't let the Earth reflect radiation. This is exactly what greenhouses do. Through the glass walls, the sunlight can come in, but once the rays are inside, the heat is trapped. That causes (intentional) temperature rise in the greenhouse. These gasses also (most likely) cause a temperature rise on Earth.
What is greenhouse gas effect?
A greenhouse traps the heat inside it so that the temperature inside is hotter than the outside. Sunlight can pass through the panes of the greenhouse to warm and allow photosynthesis, yet it prevents the escape of heat from the greenhouse. Greenhouse Effect references that phenomenon. Greenhouse Gases are the gases that have the similar ability of trapping heat from sun's radiation. Gases include NOx, CO2, CO and the like. Such gases let sunshine pass through but retain and absorb the heat radiated by the earth. It makes the earth hotter due to the trapped heat (greenhouse effect).

How could volcanoes effect global warming?
The gas from the volcanoes are like carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, which are greenhouse gases. They thicken the atmosphere and trap sunlight which heats up the earth
How does carbon dioxide in the atmosphere act like a greenhouse?
Sunlight that travels from the sun, through the Earth's atmosphere and reaches the Earth will heat up the Earth, including the atmosphere.Carbon Dioxide then will act like a blanket to all this heat, keeping it from being expelled out of Earth's atmosphere and into space.That is the effect a greenhouse has with moderating the temperature for the incumbent vegetation.
How are atmospheric gases like the gases in a greenhouse?
The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do
What gas do plants use in a greenhouse?
Humorous answer: greenhouse gasses Correct Answer: Carbon dioxide, just like when outside and not in a greenhouse.
How is a gardeners greenhouse a miniature version of the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect is called that becouse the earth naturally acts like a greenhouse but with the gases (like CO2) going up into the air, the barrier around the earth that acts like a greenhouse, makes the barrier stronger and that makes the earth get more warmer. So...The more greenhouse gases we produce the warmer the earths temperture would be

Why is the inside of a car hotter than the outdoor temp on a summer day?
Like a greenhouse, a car with closed doors and windows is a closed space. Heat trapped inside a closed car cannot get out fast. Although the sunlight heats up both inside and outside of a car at about the same rate, the heat getting inside the car is trapped in a closed space. It cannot get away as fast as the heat outside, where it's an open space and heat can lose freely. Therefore, the heat inside accumulates much faster than the heat does outside, which is why the inside of a car is hotter than the outdoor temp on a summer day.
How does a greenhouse use solar energy?
In the case of solar-powered greenhouse projects, the roof is used to place PV panels for energy generation while side sheets can be removed when required for controlling the environment inside greenhouses. Solar panels produce electricity to power electric equipment in the greenhouse like fans, pumps or lights
