I think the greenhouse effect has altered Venus because carbon dioxide is a gas so it makes a thick blanket around the Earth to fill in the open holes.

Why does the greenhouse effect on Mars not diminish?

There is a greenhouse effect on Mars, but a small one. With all that Carbon Dioxide in Mars' atmosphere (96.5%), you might expect to find a runaway greenhouse effect like that on Venus, but it is not the case. The atmospheric density on Mars is so low that the carbon dioxide creates only a minor greenhouse effect. And Mars is so cold that clouds of dry ice (frozen CO2) and some water crystals drift about in the Martian atmosphere.


How do you think this influences the surface temperature on venus?

Instead of cooling things down, the clouds on Venus reflect sunlight and trap heat, a lot like a greenhouse keeps plants warm. On Venus the 'greenhouse effect' is out of control. It can get up to almost 900F (482C). It gets hotter than Mercury. The air is thick and poisonous. Venus' atmosphere is so heavy it would feel like you were deep in the ocean. Remember how your head feels squeezed at the bottom of a swimming pool? That is pressure. On Venus, the pressure is so strong it would crush you. Even tough metal spacecraft were smashed after a few hours on the surface of Venus.


Give some useful applications of Greenhouse Effect?

well say the attmosphere was a blanket and the blanket had a hole in it. well the sunlight goes through that hole and the blanket closes the hole to were the sunlight cannot leave the attmosphere and that causes the greenhouse effect aka global warming


Could the blocking of solar light from Venus cause the formation of carbon trioxide and trigger an end to the greenhouse effect there?

Hi As far as I am aware Carbon Trioxide is formed in the plasma of a coronal discharge, and the closest place we have one of those (fortunately) is in the Sun. I think your question should actually ask if blocking the solar light (how the hell you would do that, or why I don't know) would STOP the formation of Carbon Trioxide and end greenhouse gasses on Venus. The answer is still no, it wouldn't, because the greenhouse gas is carbon DIoxide, not TRIoxide, and venusian volcanoes create all the greenhouse gas the thick atmosphere of Venus needs in order to trap the gas and to have the most poisonous and noxious atmosphere in the entire solar system. Venus and Earth are often referred to (until we actually knew anything about the Venusian atmosphere, thanks to Russian probes) as sister planets, and it's unfortunate that one day we will be.


How does fuel affect the environment?

Fuel affects the environment in a great way. When fuel is burned it releases CO2 into the air which is a greenhouse gas and contibutes to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is when these greenhouse gases(such as Co2) trap energy from the sun ,just like in a greenhouse, and raise the temperature of the earth. Thus causing glaciers to melt and ocean currents to change an eventually resulting in the end of the planet. So think about taking your bike for a ride once in a while.

How much carbon dioxide is in the atmosphere of venus?

A lot. Venus' atmosphere is 80 times thicker than ours, and over 90% of it is CO2. That's way more carbon dioxide than we have. Scientists think a runaway greenhouse effect in Venus' distant past is responsible for this, which forces us to scrutinize our own abuse of carbon dioxide! The surface of Venus is a ridiculous 800 degrees Celsius as a result of that greenhouse effect (and of course, Venus' proximity to the sun.)


What is the name of the process that traps greenhouse gases inside the earth?

Kind of guessing, but I think its called the Greenhouse Effect.


Why do you think greenhouse gases get that nickname?

Because they have the same effect as a greenhouse. They trap heat inside them, just like a greenhouse does to help the plants grow.


In what planet The temperature of its atmosphere is increased by the greenhouse effect.?

Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This releases carbon that had been buried safely underground for 300 million years.Deforestation. Cutting down trees which used to take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.Another answerWarming temperatures have long been known to be the cause of CO2 increases in the atmosphere. We know that this is due to the number one absorber of CO2 from our atmosphere (the oceans) being unable to absorb CO2 as well as the oceans warm. Typically CO2 levels always follow temperature by about 800 years.

What is The process by which gases in the atmosphere hold heat?

I think that you are talking about the greenhouse effect.


Research the greenhouse effect on the internet How much has the average temperature risen Pose possible solutions to the greenhouse effect If none are given in the article think of some on your own?

A few suggestions to answer your question:Search for the meaning of the greenhouse effect. Make sure you understand the natural effect, and the enhanced greenhouse effect.Find out how much the temperature has risen since global warming began at the start of the Industrial Revolution.Find possible solutions to the greenhouse effect, by governments and by individuals
