Question

question 1
how can insolation best be described?
the process of sending the suns rays back to space
the suns rays that are trapped in the ozone
the incoming energy that reaches the earths atmosphere and surface
the outgoing energy that reaches the earths atmosphere and surface

Explanation:

Insolation refers to the solar radiation (incoming energy) that reaches the Earth's atmosphere and surface. The first option describes reflection (sending rays back), the second is incorrect as ozone doesn't trap sun's rays in that context, and the fourth is about outgoing energy which is not insolation.

Answer:

the incoming energy that reaches the Earth's atmosphere and surface
