The greenhouse effect is a result of A. consumption of fruits and vegetables that produce a biofuel. B. absorption and radiation of energy in the atmosphere. C. absorption and radiation of energy in the hydrosphere. D. consumption and radiation of energy in the atmosphere.

The greenhouse effect is a result of absorption and radiation of energy in the atmosphere (B). The greenhouse effect is the name given to the earth's atmosphere trapping greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane in the earth's atmosphere. This trapped gas then holds more heat and subsequently raises the temperature gradually over time. This has raised the temperature of the planet over time.
