Answer 2

The green house gas called methane is the powerful absorber of the radiation emitted by Earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Among the given list of green house gases in the option, methane is considered as most powerful absorber of the radiation emitted by earth.

It is because when we compare the availability of “carbon dioxide and methane” in the atmosphere it can be seen that methane is available in smaller quantity but the latter is “30 times stronger than the former in absorbing the Infra red radiation”. Thus methane is considered as strong or most powerful absorber.
