The warming of a car in the sun is an excellent analogy for the greenhouse effect of our atmosphere. Complete the analogy with the words and phrases then place the sentences in order.

When sunlight hits a car, its windows absorb some radiation, such as UV-(B). In the atmosphere, (ALL) of the UV-(C) and (SOME) of the UV-(B) radiation is absorbed by reactions of oxygen and ozone in the (STRATOSPHERE). The car windows allow (VISIBLE LIGHT) and infrared radiation to pass into the car. Similarly, our atmosphere allows (HIGHER ENERGY) infrared radiation and (VISIBLE LIGHT) to pass through. The car's interior, like the Earth's (ROCKS AND SOIL), absorbs (VISIBLE LIGHT) and (HIGHER ENERGY) infrared radiation then emits (LOWER ENERGY) infrared radiation back out. The car windows, like the (GREENHOUSE GASES) of our atmosphere, trap the (LOWER ENERGY) infrared radiation and makes the interior warmer than the outside.
