    Which one of the following pairs is mismatched?

    A)  Biomass burning - Release of \[C{{O}_{2}}\]

    B)  Fossil fuel burning - Release of \[C{{O}_{2}}\]

    C)  Nuclear power - Radioactive wastes

    D)  Solar energy - Greenhouse effect

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Solar energy is not responsible for greenhouse effect instead it is a source of energy for the plants and animals. Green plants prepare their food by the use of this solar energy. \[C{{O}_{2}}\] gas is mainly responsible for greenhouse effect. Excess of this gas forms a thick layer around the earth and prevents re-radiation of entering sun rays to atmosphere. Thus functions like the glass panels of a greenhouse (or the glass windows of a motor car). This is so called greenhouse effect.
