This question was previously asked in
SSC Selection Post 2020 Graduation Level Question Paper (14 Dec, 2020) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

Venus

The correct answer is Venus.

While the Earth also experiences a greenhouse effect, primarily due to water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane, Venus's atmosphere is about 90 times denser than Earth's and composed overwhelmingly of carbon dioxide. This creates a much stronger effect, trapping vast amounts of heat and leading to the scorching surface temperatures that make Venus the hottest planet. This serves as a crucial case study in understanding climate and atmospheric science.
