**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify Greenhouse Gases:** The question asks for gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect, in addition to carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). 2. **Recall Known Greenhouse Gases:** Besides the mentioned gases, we need to think of other gases that are known to have greenhouse properties. 3. **Consider Nitrous Oxide:** One significant greenhouse gas that is often overlooked is nitrous oxide (N₂O). It is produced from agricultural and industrial activities, as well as during combustion of fossil fuels and solid waste. ...
