Investigate the cause of the greenhouse effect by completing each sentence. greenhouse gases solar radiation infrared carbon dioxide fossil fuels water vapor solar The heat within earth's atmosphere originates from radiation. This energy is trapped near the earth by molecules in the atmosphere called Major greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, CFCS, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide, and Most of the radiation from the Earth's surface is absorbed by greenhouse gases and reflected back to earth.

Select the correct terms: (Climate / Weather) is the short-term atmospheric conditions in an area, while (climate / weather) is the average atmospheric conditions in a given area over a long period of time. (Climate change / Global warming) consists of the long-term and largescale changes in atmospheric conditions, which have been brought about by (climate change / global warming), an increase in the average global temperature.
