Question
CO2 contributes ______ percent to global warming.
- 10 % -20%
- 20% -25%
- 40% -48%
- 27% -35%
Hint:
Carbon dioxide is the most abundant greenhouse gas present in the atmosphere. An alarming rise in the level of this gas can be seen after the industrial revolution. It is caused by the increased emission of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere by man.
The correct answer is: 40% -48%
CO2 contributes 40% -48% percent to global warming.

__________ is a greenhouse gas.
- They are referred to as greenhouse gases because, like the glass of a greenhouse, they let visible light from the Sun pass through the atmosphere and they absorb long-wavelength infrared energy from the Earth and keep the atmosphere warm.
- Greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and other gases that accumulate in the atmosphere and create the heat-reflective layer.

Which of the following is explained by theory of plate tectonics?
- Big Bang theory explains how the universe began.
- Gravity is not same everywhere on Earth, but it varies because the planet is not perfectly spherical or uniformly dense and also due to it's rotation.
- Since the forces that generate our magnetic field are constantly changing, the field itself is also in continual flux, its strength waxing and waning over time.
