The molecules that respond to infrared photons are called greenhouse gases. note that when an infrared photon energizes a molecule of a greenhouse gas, the molecule quickly emits another infrared photon in a random direction, often back toward the source. when that occurs in earth’s atmosphere, some of the infrared photons are sent back to earth’s surface. how might the absorption of more electromagnetic radiation affect earth’s surface temperature?

Respuesta :

A greenhouse gas is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range, causing the greenhouse effect.

The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone.Greenhouse gases absorb radiation from the sun and re-radiate it back toward the atmosphere, which helps to maintain a normal range of temperature on Earth.

Greenhouse are glass house which are used to grow crops in regions exhibiting extreme cold temperatures and snow fall. The soil in these regions are frozen therefore, are not suitable for plant growth. These glass houses  trap the sunlight which is used by the plants for photosynthesis and growth. Some gases like methane, carbon dioxide,  carbon monoxide, sulphur and nitrogen dioxide are released into the atmosphere. These gases maintains the range of temperature of atmosphere.
