There is no radiation (Alpha particles, Beta particles, Gamma rays) related to Greenhouse Gases. There is some conversion of lsolar energy to thermal radiation (heat)

Greenhouse gases can stop the transmission of this type of ray.?
Greenhouse gases stop the transmission of infrared rays. These are the rays which carry heat away from the earth, and therefore an increase in greenhouse gases results in global warming.
How greenhouse gasses can be absorbed?
Greenhouse gases absorb infra red radiation (heat) coming back up from the warmed earth. They hold this heat, and in turn warm up the air around them, as well as warming the earth's surface again.
What type of fuel produces greenhouse gases?
Biomass
What type of science is greenhouse gases?
Study of greenhouses gases would fall into the meteorology branch of earth science.
What are the limitations in comparing the earth's atmosphere to a greenhouse?
The scale is the most limiting factor in comparing the Earth's atmosphere to that of a greenhouse. The type of surface that sunlight first encounters is an important factor. Forests, grasslands, ocean surfaces, ice caps, deserts, and cities all absorb, reflect, and radiate radiation differently. Sunlight falling on a white glacier surface strongly reflects back into space, resulting in minimal heating of the surface and lower atmosphere. Sunlight falling on a dark desert soil is strongly absorbed, on the other hand, and contributes to significant heating of the surface and lower atmosphere. Cloud cover also affects greenhouse warming by both reducing the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth's surface and by reducing the amount of radiation energy emitted into space.
What type of radiation is trapped on earth's surface by the greenhouse effect?
terestrial

What absorbs Earth's radiation?
It depends on the type of radiation.
What type of radiation is trapped on earth's surface by greenhouse effect?
terestrial
What type of cloud will prevent greenhouse gases the most?
cummulus clouds
What globe out of the CFL and the incandescent releases the least amount of greenhouse gases?
Neither type release greenhouse gasses
What is meant by type atmosphere?
the atmosphere is the blanket of gases that surrounds earth
Which part of the atmosphere contains a type of gas that absorb UV radiation?
The atmosphere is a huge layer of gases surrounding earth. It contains the ozone gas. The ozone gas protects us from harmful rays of the sun.
which type of power production produces the least amount of greenhouse gases?
nuclear
