Green screens are used to produce a huge variety of effects, such as holes in the body, missing limbs, etcetera...But, as far as entire backgrounds go, I would imagine that would encompass things such as 'hell scenes' where the entire background is fire, or like bottomless pit suspensions or some underwater scenes, pretty much just anything that would be difficult to reproduce the old-fashioned way (example: fire is often green-screened, or CGI, because...well...It's freakin' HOT :p)...But, green-screening can also be used for common, animated background scenery if you prefer to shoot your film in a studio rather than on location...Green-screening to show movement/travel (driving in a car, riding a ferris wheel, flying in a plane, etcetera) is also pretty common

I hope I helped to answer your question :)
