Which of these would you identify as the cause and effect for a diagram on greenhouse gases?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After sunlight hits Earth’s surface, waves of infrared radiation, or heat energy, radiate back up toward the atmosphere. But this energy doesn’t make a quick getaway into space. Instead, it collides with molecules of greenhouse gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone. Some of the heat energy radiates back toward Earth, and some radiates higher into the atmosphere, eventually escaping into space. The energy that returns to Earth heats the planet’s surface and gets recycled over and over before finally escaping into space. a. heat energy radiates towards the atmosphere, energy gets recycled before escaping into space c. sunlight hits the Earth’s surface, collides with greenhouse gases b. sunlight hits the Earth’s surface, heat energy radiates back towards Earth and escapes into space d. none of these

@Whitemonsterbunny17 I think this one's B.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Well, take a look at the last sentence: The energy that returns to Earth heats the planet’s surface and gets recycled over and over before finally escaping into space.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

So, all that heat is being recycled over and over again, until it eventually escapes into space.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

So B. is incorrect.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Because it has to be recycled first.

So it's A?
