Want this question answered?
In the convection Zone!
By radiation: mainly in the infrared wavelengths.
heat energy transferred by earths atmosphere by the sun
No. Convection requires a medium to carry thermal energy from one place to another. There is no or not enough of any material in space to accomplish this. Radiation will carry thermal energy from the sun to the Earth.
radiation received from the Sun
It is transferred by the energy of photons and heat radiation. Convection doesnt work as there is vacuum between sun and earth.

No! Convection would require a medium and there is none such between the sun and the earth - just vacuum.
By convection
Yes. Since there is no phjysical material in the space between Sun and Earth, neither conduction nor convection is an option.

the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.

The convection zone.
In both cases, heat is transferred via convection.
Very simply, you can "see" the sun or feel the sun's warmth. Both of these tell you that solar energy from the sun has transferred to earth.
