A. ‘Green house’ (made of glass) allows visible sunlight (i.e., short wavelength solar radiation
like ultra-violet rays) to pass through the glass and heat up the soil thereby warming up plants
inside it
B. The emitted longer wavelength radiation (e.g., infrared) is partly reflected and partly absorbed
by the glass of the green house

CO2 acts like the glass of ‘green house’ thereby warming up the earth’s surface
D. ‘Green house’ is colder than the outside atmosphere
