The heat trapping ability of some gases in the atmosphere can be compared to a glass greenhouse's ability to trap heat. Thus, the term "greenhouse effect" was created.
Not really, it thickens the Atmosphere though. However, since the atmosphere is mostly made up of oxygen and nitrogen, the effects of the greenhouse gases mostly stick to trapping heat.
greenhouse effect
No, each gas differs and works more effectively compared to others.
Greenhouse gases aren't trapping heat it but letting more in. The Earth's atmosphere blocks out most of the suns heat and harmful rays. With the gases polluting the world, the atmosphere is slowly weakening, letting more and more heat through.
humans and people on earth consume all types of products that produce gases that are released into the atmosphere. These heat trapping gases are mainly caused by fossil fuels

Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere trapping the sun's heat. Geenhouse gases like water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane become warm from infra-red heat given off by the warmed earth.
Yes it is, the green house gas emissions - and not just CO2 .!. - placed by Humanity into Our Atmosphere in the last Century clearly have had and are having an Effect: to what extent, compared to other current Natural Sources, is of little or no consequence after the Glaciers are No More.
The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.
The gases that trap the sun's heat in the earth's atmosphere are called "green house gases." Some gases that contribute to this phenomenon are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and hydrofluourocarbons (HFCs). The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has a great website for investigating a more complete answer to this question. http://lwf.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/gases.html
The mixture of gases in the atmosphere are a solution of gases. Since nitrogen makes up 78% of the gases in the atmosphere, it is the solvent and the other gases are the solutes.
