Solution
The correct option is D Sun The earth receives light from the Sun.
Some of the solar energy that arrives at the Earth bounces off the atmosphere and clouds and back into space. The surface of the Earth receives about half of the incoming solar radiation. The solar energy takes the form of heat and visible light as well as ultraviolet rays, the type of energy that causes sunburn.
