What else can I help you with?
What name is given to gases which trap heat from the sun?
They are generally called Greenhouses gases, as greenhouses trap heat into the glass.
What would happen to the earth if you did not have these greenhouses gases in the atmosphere?
The earth would be too cold for life. Greenhouse gases have been essential for life on this planet, and have kept Earth warm for millions of years.
What are the benefits of greenhouses gases?
The natural greenhouse effect has kept the earth warm enough for life for millions of years.
What type of gas do greenhouses have inside?
Greenhouses have regular air (nitrogen and oxygen gases) inside.
Why do you need greenhouses?
Greenhouse gases are needed to keep the planet warm. If it was not for greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the earth would be like the moon, warm during the day and frozen at night.
What molecule do greenhouses produce?
There are five main gases produced by greenhouses: water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone.
How does greenhouses keep earth warm?
Greenhouses keep the Earth warm through the greenhouse effect, where sunlight enters the atmosphere and warms the Earth's surface. This heat is then radiated back into space as infrared radiation. However, greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trap some of this heat, preventing it from escaping, thus warming the atmosphere. This natural process is essential for maintaining a climate that supports life, but an excess of these gases can lead to global warming.
Who causes greenhouse gases?
Yep it does fossil fuels cause greenhouses gas.
Can greenhouses gases be converted into something useful and what?
Methane can be used to create energy
What type of science is greenhouse gases?
Greenhouse gases are studied in the field of environmental science, specifically in the subfield of climatology and atmosperic science. These gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor, which play a role in trapping heat in Earth's atmosphere and contributing to the greenhouse effect.
What do greenhouses gases trap?
Greenhouse gases trap infrared heat (from the sun) rising from the surface of the earth. More greenhouse gases trap more heat, and this is the situation now. Increasing levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in particular are trapping more heat and causing a global warming.
How are greenhouses gases helpful?
Greenhouse gases are helpful because they trap heat in Earth's atmosphere, which keeps the planet warm enough to support life. Without greenhouse gases, Earth would be too cold for humans, plants, and animals to survive. However, an overabundance of greenhouse gases can lead to climate change and negative impacts on ecosystems.
