Venus. Similar to Earth in many ways, a runaway greenhouse effect is thought responsible for its 900°F (480°C) surface temperature.

Does a planet need an atmosphere to have an Greenhouse Effect?

Yes, there must be greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Without a greenhouse effect the planet would be unable to sustain life. The greenhouse effect is required for life as we know it.


Which planet atmosphere is increased by the greenhouse effect?

Research has shown that the planet Venus has its atmosphere temperature increased by the greenhouse effect


Does a planet need atmosphere to have a Greenhouse Effect?

Yes. The greenhouse effect is caused by gasses that block thermal radiation from a planet's surface.


What planet has an atmosphere with a greenhouse effect?

EarthVenusMarsThe greenhouse effect occurs on every planet with an atmosphere (including Earth). On Venus, there is a runaway greenhouse effect causing temperatures high enough to melt lead.Mars has a greenhouse effect that is weak because of its thin atmosphere.


The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?

The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. This occurs when gases like carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere trap heat radiating from the planet's surface, leading to a warming effect.


Which planet is dominated by a Greenhouse effect?

Venus has a runaway greenhouse effect that has boiled its oceans dry.


The planet with the green house effect?

The planet with the most notable greenhouse effect in our solar system is Venus. This is due to its thick atmosphere that traps heat, leading to extremely high surface temperatures. Earth also experiences a greenhouse effect, but in more balanced and sustainable levels.


How does a greenhouse effect affect a planet?

A greenhouse effect traps heat that would otherwise escape out to space, so it keeps the planet warm.


Can a planet with no atmosphere have a greenhouse effect?

No, a planet without an atmosphere cannot have a greenhouse effect because the atmosphere is necessary to trap heat and create the warming effect. Without an atmosphere, there is no mechanism to retain heat and create the greenhouse effect.


What is necessary for a planet to have a greenhouse effect?

Gas


What is the trapping of heat near a planet's surface by certain gases in the planet's atmosphere?

We call it the greenhouse effect, which is natural, or the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.


What happens to the planet because of the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect is when heat gets in the atmosphere but not all of it is getting out.
