Answer:The correct answer is30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Earth's albedo tells us about the how much energy absorbed from sun's radiation remains on the planet Earth and how much much energy absorbed is reflected back into space by its atmosphere.

About 30 % of the energy from the sun radiations falling on the Earth is reflected by the earth atmosphere back into the space.
