Question
What is the greenhouse effect?
Short Note
Solution
The greenhouse is referred to as a glasshouse. The heat enters the house 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. This phenomenon is called the greenhouse effect.
