Question

How does the air inside the greenhouse remain warm?

One Line Answer

Solution

The temperature in a greenhouse rises because heat enters the house through the glass but cannot escape out, because the glass reflects the heat back to the inside of the house. This makes the glasshouse warmer than the outside environment.
