Which interactions are part of the greenhouse effect? check all that apply. gases in the atmosphere absorb heat. dust particles scatter and reflect light from the sun. green visible light is trapped in earth’s atmosphere. earth’s surface radiates energy back into the atmosphere. gases in the atmosphere radiate heat back to the surface.

Gases in the atmosphere absorb heat

Earth’s surface radiates energy back into the atmosphere.

Gases in the atmosphere radiate heat back to the surface.

Explanation:

The greenhouse effect is a natural process in this the light energy from sun is trapped by the diatomic gases like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and others. The abundance of these gases due to human activities like burning of fossil fuels and deforestation is responsible for raising the global temperature levels. Also the earth surface radiates back the incident light energy from sun back to the atmosphere. The gases accumulates in the atmosphere also radiate back to the surface of earth raising the temperature of biosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere affecting the life of living beings.
