Answer:

The Greenhouse Effect is the process of heating up the Earth's atmosphere.

_____________________________________________

OR if this possibly is not the answer through context, the other would be:

Convection is the process of heating up of the earth's atmosphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

#1

The Greenhouse Effect is usually defined as an atmospheric heating phenomenon, caused by short wave solar radiation being readily transmitted inward through the earth's atmosphere but longer-wavelength heat radiation less readily transmitted outward, owing to its absorption by atmospheric carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, and other gases; thus, the rising level of carbon dioxide is viewed with concern.

#2:

Convection is the mechanism that warms the earth's atmosphere. Convection is how heat is transferred when it comes to liquids and gases. It is the mechanism through which heat moves through liquids such as water, gas, and air. Convection is a process where heat energy is transmitted by the particles moving from one location to another. When a liquid or a gas is heated, its molecules become lighter and travel upward before being heated as colder molecules fall to the bottom and settle there. The process of convection heats the earth's atmosphere in this manner. The transmission or emission of energy as waves or rays is known as radiation. Conduction is the flow of heat or electricity via a medium or a channel. Emission is the term used to describe the release and creation of radiations and gases.
