Answer:  A) The outer planets consist mostly of gases.

Explanation:

The outer planets are different from the inner planets because the outer planets consists of gas and very small solid or liquid center. It is impossible to stand on these outer planets. The inner planets have solid surface and it is possible to stand on these planets but these planets lack atmosphere. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are the examples of outer planets. Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the examples of inner planets.

Which of the following is Not a Greenhouse Gas?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

N₂

Explanation:

The primary greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, water vapour and ozone. These gases allow sunlight to reach the Earth's surface unhindered. The sunlight heats the surface. The heat as infrared reradiated to the atmosphere, the greenhouse gases absorb the heat energy. They do not allow heat to escape back trapping' the gases in the lower atmosphere.

Nitrogen is an inert gas present in the atmosphere is about 78%.

Only some nitrogen-fixing bacteria such as Rhizobium which fixes atmospheric nitrogen into the soil.

Thus, N₂ (nitrogen) is not a greenhouse gas.
