The atmospheric greenhouse effect is similar to a plant greenhouse because INSERT FIGURE 3-17. REMOVE ALL TEXT. NO CAPTION
A) the glass, like the atmosphere, is transparent to incoming shortwave radiation but opaque to outgoing longwave radiation.
B) the glass, like the atmosphere, is opaque to incoming shortwave radiation but transparent to outgoing longwave radiation
C) the glass, like the atmosphere, is transparent to incoming longwave radiation but opaque to outgoing shortwave radiation
D) the glass, like the atmosphere, is opaque to incoming longwave radiation but transparent to outgoing shortwave radiation
Question 2
Atmospheric greenhouse gases
A) absorb shortwave radiation and also impede the transfer of latent and sensible heat
B) absorb shortwave radiation but do not impede the transfer of latent and sensible heat
C) absorb longwave radiation but do not impede the transfer of latent and sensible heat
D) absorb longwave radiation and also impede the transfer of latent and sensible heat
Atmospheric pressure decreases as altitude increases.
