How do greenhouse gases such as co2 and n2o contribute to an increase in earth’s atmospheric temperature? a> greenhouse gases interact with infrared photons and reflect them back to earth’s surface. b> greenhouse gases chemically react with one another, releasing heat in the process. c> greenhouse gases agitate visible light photons, increasing the photons’ temperature and motion energy. d> greenhouse gases generate internal heat through radioactive decay, similar to the core of earth.
