Explain what the greenhouse effect is, use diagrams if you wish. Include:
-Radiation from the sun absorbs earths heat
-Some emitted
-Trapped by the greenhouse

See the answer below

Explanation:

The greenhouse effect refers to the heating effects produced by the earth's atmosphere on the planet as a result of the atmosphere absorbing reflected radiation from the sun by the earth.

The earth's atmosphere is a blanket of gases, some of which are referred to as greenhouse gases. These gases have the capacity to trap radiations coming from the sun that is reflected by the ground layer of the earth. Thus, they produce a warming effect on the earth.

A bulk of the radiation coming from the sun is reflected back into space by the earth's stratosphere. The small percentage that passes through are dispersed in different directions and some of them pass through the atmospheric blanket to reach the ground layer of the earth. While some are absorbed by the ground itself, some are emitted back into the atmosphere where the greenhouse gases trap a large portion and prevent them from escaping back into space.

This leads to the warming of the earth and the entire phenomenon is referred to as the greenhouse effect.
