Question

Which list contains three major greenhouse gases

Answer 1

Answer:

Which are referred to as greenhouse gases?

 

nitrogen and oxygen

 

oxygen and carbon dioxide

 

water vapor and oxygen

 

water vapor and carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Answer water vapor and carbon dioxide

The major gases involved in the greenhouse effect are water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane. These greenhouse gases, as they are often called, are transparent to solar radiation, and therefore much of this energy reaches Earth’s surface. Most of this energy is then reradiated skyward.

Answer 2

 Although greenhouse gases such as water vapor, CO2, and methane naturally occur in smaller amounts, they absorb and release heat energy more efficiently than gases like N and O. (Nitrogen and Oxygen.)
So I would say (1) is the answer
