Download Solution PDFConcept:
- Greenhouse gases such as methane and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere prevent the rays of the Sun reflected from the Earth’s surface to escape the atmosphere thus trapping the radiations.
- The trapped radiations warm the Earth’s atmosphere, causing increases in the global temperature. This is called the greenhouse effect.
- And because of the increase in temperature icy bodies start melting and increases the sea level.
Explanation:
The greenhouse effect is due to an increase in the temperature of the planet due to an increase in carbon dioxide concentration of the atmosphere
Mistake Points
Global Warming
- An increase in average temperature of the earth surface due to the greenhouse effect is called global warming
- It also refers to the increase in average temperature of the air and sea at the earth's surface
- Hence, the surface of the earth becomes warm which causes global warming
- The phenomenon is similar to that of greenhouse in which the glass-enclosed atmosphere gets heated up due to its insulation from the rest of the environment
