6 0

Answer:

Energy is transferred from the Sun to the Earth through radiation. As water is heated by the sun, it evaporates. The water vapor then condenses and forms clouds in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

When the Sun's energy moves through space, it reaches Earth's atmosphere and finally the surface. This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet's systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection.
