How does the proportion of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere differ between Earth and Venus? (1 point) Responses Venus's atmosphere has a higher proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap more heat. Venus's atmosphere has a higher proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap more heat. Venus's atmosphere has a higher proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap less heat. Venus's atmosphere has a higher proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap less heat. Venus's atmosphere has a lower proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap less heat. Venus's atmosphere has a lower proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap less heat. Venus's atmosphere has a lower proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap more heat.

The correct response is: Venus's atmosphere has a higher proportion of carbon dioxide than Earth's, so greenhouse gasses trap more heat.
Venus's atmosphere is composed of about 96.5% carbon dioxide, compared to Earth's approximately 0.04%. This high concentration of CO2 on Venus significantly contributes to its extreme greenhouse effect, resulting in much higher surface temperatures.
