Explanation:

Greenhouse gases are defined as gases that trap heat (energy from the sun) in Earth's atmosphere, causing the greenhouse - effect. While fossil fuel use can produce some greenhouse gases, not all greenhouse gases are from fossil fuel use. Also, carbon dioxide and methane are examples of greenhouse gases, not the full description. The most comprehensive and accurate description is that they trap energy from the sun in Earth's atmosphere.

Answer:

D. gases that trap energy from the sun in Earth's atmosphere
