{'green house effect': [4, 0, 0, 3], 'green houses': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'pollution': [3, 0, 1, 0], 'houses': [13, 3, 5, 21], 'solar energy': [6, 1, 0, 3], 'atmospheric carbon dioxide': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'tropical regions': [1, 0, 1, 2]}

The correct answer is option 3: trapping of solar energy due to atmospheric carbon dioxide. The greenhouse effect is a natural process that occurs when certain gases in the Earth`s atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, trap heat from the sun. These gases act like a "greenhouse," allowing sunlight to enter but preventing some of the heat from escaping back into space. This causes the temperature of the Earth to rise, leading to global warming. Option 1 is incorrect because the greenhouse effect is not related to pollution in houses in tropical regions. Option 2 is incorrect because atmospheric oxygen does not play a significant role in the greenhouse effect. Option 4 is incorrect because greenhouse cultivation is a different concept and not directly related to the greenhouse effect.
