false!

What are two things that can happen to the suns rays when they enter the earth?
The two main things that happen to solar radiation that reaches earth is absorption and reflection. This happens because of the different objects on earth.
How is 34 percent of the energy from the sun reflected off the troposphere?
About 26% of incoming solar radiation is reflected back into space from the clouds and atmosphere. Another 16% is absorbed by the atmosphere.Incoming solar radiation: 100%Reflected by the atmosphere: 6% : Absorbed by the atmosphere: 16%Continuing incoming solar radiation: 78%Reflected by clouds: 20% : Absorbed by clouds: 3%Continuing incoming solar radiation: 55%Reflected by the earth's surface: 4% : Absorbed by the earth's surface (lands and oceans): 51%
What percent of sunlight is reflected off of the earth's surface?
47% heavy.
How much sunlight does snow reflect?
The ability of the substance to reflect the sunlight from their surface is known as "Albedo". it values may vary between 0 to 1. if the body does not reflect sunlight its value may be taken as zero. if the body reflects complete sunlight its value may taken as 1. for example if the bodys albedo is 0.23 then we can say that 23 percent of sunlight is being reflected. For snow the albedo is 0.83 percent and for water it is 0.03 percent that means 83 percent of sunlight is reflected from snow , where as water reflects 3 to 4 percent of sunlight. Hence snow reflects more sunlight
Is the percent of solar radiation reflected by an ocean more than the percent reflected by a desert?
yes
How much sunlight is in the sunlight zone?
The amount of salinity that there is in the sunlight zone is about 3.5 percent. About 90 percent of sea life also resides in this zone.

The Canopy layer
About 6 percent of solar radiation is what by the Earth's surface?
Reflected.
What percent of organisms are still alive?
about 50 to 60% organisms
What percent of sunlight is available for photosynthesis?
15%
What are property that affects how much light will be reflected off it?
The extent of smoothness tells us that how much light will be reflected off any substance.If the surface is frictionless the light reflected will be cent percent.
How much salinity is there in the sunlight zone?
The amount of salinity that there is in the sunlight zone is about 3.5 percent. About 90 percent of sea life also resides in this zone.
