Post-Quiz A
This final questionnaire consists of 10 multiple-choice questions about the topic “GHG emissions and reduction measures”. Instructions: Please circle ONLY ONE as the right answer to each question, UNLESS otherwise stated. Q1. What is the greenhouse effect?
A. The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphereCORRECT B. The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature below what it would be without this atmosphere. C. The greenhouse effect is the process by which convective heat from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere.
Q2. What is a GHG (Greenhouse Gas)?
A. A greenhouse GHG is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal ultraviolet range, causing the greenhouse effect. B. A greenhouse gas GHG is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range, causing the greenhouse effect. - CORRECT C. A greenhouse gas GHG is a gas that absorbs and emits convective energy within the thermal infrared range, causing the greenhouse effect.
