Answer» Correct Answer - D
1. Clouds and gases reflect about one-fourth of the incoming solar radiation, and absorb some of it but almost one-half of incoming solar radiation falls on Earth’s surface heating it, while a small proportion is reflected back.
2. Earth’s surface re-emits heat in the form of infrared radiation but part of this does not escape into space as atmospheric gases absorb a major fraction of it.
