 Due to carbon dioxide sunlight get trapped in earth's atmosphere, increases the temperature and results in global warming. Due to this glaciers melt and sea level increases and hence coastal areas may flood. The sun's rays reach us in the form of visible light, and raise the temperature of earth. This heat energy warms the earth then goes back into space, and so the temperature remains in balance.

C. THEY TRAP ENERGY IN THE ATMOSPHERE.

They are not naturally occurring. They are the result of human activity like using electricity, burning fuel, etc. 

They don't exist in fixed quantities and they don't reflect incoming radiation. The volume of greenhouse gases emitted depends on the activity done. It also does not stay in one place, it moves around and combines with other green house gases; trapping heat in the atmosphere and making the Earth warmer.
