Which part of the greenhouse represents greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?
The glass or plastic walls of a greenhouse represent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by trapping heat energy inside, much like how greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat.
Which of the following gases are mainly responsible for the atmospheric greenhouse effect in the earth's atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and water vapor are the main gases responsible for the atmospheric greenhouse effect in the Earth's atmosphere. These gases trap heat from the sun and warm the planet's surface through a natural process known as the greenhouse effect.
How do greenhouse gases affect the earths atmosphere?
They slow the loss of heat
What are green house gases or atmospheric gases?
Atmospheric gases trap heat so that Earth is not a frozen wasteland. Greenhouse gases is the term used to refer to heat-trapping gases such as carbon dioxide and methane because these gaseous components of the atmosphere make Earth function like a greenhouse-heat from the Sun that is reflected off the Earth is reflected back up to the atmosphere and the greenhouse gases trap some of this heat. Understand that greenhouse gases are necessary to retain some of the Sun's heat, but they are bad in excess; to much carbon dioxide( a greenhouse gas) contributes to global warming-too much heat from the Sun is trapped by the atmosphere so that temperatures on the surface rise.
The process by which gases hold heat in the atmosphere is called the what?
The process by which gases hold heat in the atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. This occurs when certain gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun, leading to an increase in temperature on Earth. Some of the key greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.

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 is the atmospheric gas that traps heat inside the atmosphere?
Greenhouse gases like water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane.

What atmospheric gases help to heat the earth?
The atmospheric gases carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases that help to heat the Earth.

What do you call gases that retain heat within the atmosphere?
Greenhouse gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and potentially leading to global warming. Examples of greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.
What in the earth's atmosphere absorbs heat?
Greenhouse gases.
What does the term greenhouse effect mean?
Green house effect is a process in atmospheric physics that traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere. It is the result of physical interaction between components of the atmosphere (greenhouse gases) and incoming sunlight. It is not a layer of carbon dioxide in the sky that reflects heat back down as it radiates from the Earth's surface. Heat is absorbed by the carbon dioxide all through the atmosphere and the warmer gas "shares" its heat with all the atmospheric gases increasing the average atmospheric temperature.
How can an increase in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases such as CO2 methane water vapor and CFCs impact the global climate?
Because greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and keep it in the atmosphere. The warmer atmosphere keeps the earth warmer and the heat is extra energy which affects the climate.
