    Choice B., infrared radiation

    Explanation:

    A gas in atmosphere which allows the incoming of the solar radiation to reach Earth's surface and on the other hand also absorbs these radiation which are re-emitted as heat, trapping heat in atmosphere and causing temperature to rise is called green house effect.

    For example, carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas which traps heat from sun resulting in the warming the planet.

    Thus, infrared radiations which is a source of heat is reflected back to the Earth's surface by greenhouse gases.
