The Sun appears larger than other stars because it is much closer to Earth compared to other stars. This proximity makes the Sun appear larger and brighter in our sky. In reality, the Sun is an average-sized star compared to the vast range of sizes of other stars in the universe.

Absolutely nothing.
Why do we usually only see constellations at night?
During the day, the Sun is out and brightens the sky. Since the Sun is so close to Earth (compared to the stars we see at night), the Sun's light overpowers the light coming from the distant stars. However, at night the Sun's light is not present to wash out the light from the stars, so the stars can finally be seen. The constellations that one sees at night arises from the groupings of various stars.
