Solution

Solar energy:

  1. The Sun is the planet's primary source of light.
  2. Solar energy is trapped and used as a non-renewable source of energy to generate electricity on Earth.
  3. The sun's solar energy is used up by plants during the photosynthesis process.
  4. As a byproduct of photosynthesis, oxygen is released into the atmosphere.
  5. As a result, we can say that the sun provides an indirect source of oxygen to living things.
  6. Direct sunlight is a source of vitamin D, which the human body requires.
