The heat doesn't radiate back into the atmosphere because it's partly trapped by the glass. Something like that happens on Earth. The atmosphere acts like a blanket that keeps the Sun's heat from leaking away into space. 3. The main conclusion you can draw from this paragraph is that A. the atmosphere keeps Earth warm. B. in a greenhouse, the Sun's heat is trapped by the glass. C. because of the greenhouse effect, plants on Earth should thrive. D. a greenhouse helps plants to grow faster.

User: I was in the National Forest with my camera. The day was crisp, and the leaves were turning gold and red. When I spotted the white-tailed buck, I froze. He wasn't more than 15 yards from where I was standing. The wind must have been right, because he kept on browsing the mossy ground. I lifted my camera very slowly. Carefully, holding my breath, I lifted the camera to my eye. Turning the focus ring, I framed the deer's head. Just as I was ready to press the shutter release, the buck raised his head. He was looking my way with wide eyes. Click. I took the picture. An instant later, the deer bounded away into the forest. He took off, but I had the shot. Today, the framed photo of that buck hangs above our fireplace. 5. What, specifically, does the writer imply by saying "the wind must have been right"? A. The deer didn't pick up the writer's scent.

User: Both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. Both are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. This is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources. 6. What organizing principle or principles are used in this paragraph? A. Chronological order; cause and effect B. Chronological order C. Comparison and contrast; cause and effect D. Cause and effect

Weegy: C. Comparison and contrast; cause and effect
