26Climate Change Greenhouse GasesMedium1 mark
The diagram represents processes X and Y and their effect, Z, in increasing global warming.
Which row identifies X, Y and Z?
| X | Y | Z | |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | absorption of thermal energy by greenhouse gases | emission of thermal energy to the Earth | reduced thermal energy loss to space |
| B | emission of thermal energy by greenhouse gases | emission of thermal energy to space | reduced thermal energy loss to space |
| C | absorption of thermal energy by greenhouse gases | emission of thermal energy to the Earth | increased thermal energy loss to space |
| D | emission of thermal energy by greenhouse gases | emission of thermal energy to space | increased thermal energy loss to space |
