(1) Scientists generally agree that Earth is getting warmer due to what's called the greenhouse effect. (2) A greenhouse stays warm because sunlight and heat coming through the glass roof are mostly trapped. (3) The heat doesn't radiate back into the atmosphere because it's held in by the glass. (4) Something like that happens on Earth. (5) The atmosphere acts like a blanket that keeps the Sun's heat from leaking away into space.

Answer: C is the best answer

this question is weirdly phrased, I picked C through process of elimination. Here's my reasoning:

It cannot be A because although the paragraph explains what greenhouses are, that it not the point of the passage. It is not B because even though the greenhouse effect is mentioned it does not explicitly say it is changing the atmosphere - just the temperature of the Earth. It is not D because according to the paragraph the greenhouse effect is exactly why the suns heat cannot escape.
