Solar energy has the greatest impact on primary productivity.
Explanation:
Primary productivity is the amount of organic compounds synthesized from carbon dioxide. Primary production occurs by the process of photosynthesis. Since the process of photosynthesis uses sunlight as the energy source solar energy has the greatest impact on primary productivity.
The synthesis can occur in atmosphere as well as aquatic environment. The organisms that perform the function of primary production are called producers .In terrestrial regions plants are the producers and in aquatic systems algae are the primary producers.
The Greek philosopher Aristotle and the Roman Catholic Church also believed the sun revolved around the earth. In 1543, Nicolaus Copernicus<span> published a new theory stating the earth revolves around the sun. This is known as the Copernican theory.</span>
