90 POINTS ANSWER ASAP PLEASEEEEE

using your knowledge about the difference in how atmospheric gases interact with visible photons versus infrared light, describe the relationship between greenhouse gasses, sunlight, and radiated heat

Make it short and simple please! Thank you!!

Answer 1

The Earth radiates energy at wavelengths much longer than the Sun because it is colder. Part of this longwave radiation is absorbed by greenhouse gases which then radiate energy into all directions, including downwards and thereby trapping heat in the atmosphere.
