Answer: D). The greenhouse effect makes it possible for organisms to live on Earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Greenhouse effect is a phenomena which depicts the fact that the heat energy from the earth does not reflect back to the space which has been obtain from the sun. This is caused by the greenhouse gases which traps the heat energy from sun making the atmosphere hot.

This results in fluctuations in climatic conditions. Responsible for melting of glaciers hence, the organisms which are adapted to survive in glaciers will not be able to survive in hot climatic conditions. Also the organisms living in the terrestrial regions cannot tolerate excess heat and will die.
