Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In addition to `CO_(2)`, some other gases also contribute to greenhouse effect. These include ozone, CFCs, nitrous oxide `N_(2)O` and even methane `(CH_(4))`. Nitrous oxide is produced by denitrifying bacteria acting on artificial fertilisers applied to poorly aerated soils.
