it is important because the plants need it to grow, human beings use the solar energy in the sun to slow global warming and some animals eat plants but the carnvores eat animals that eats plants..
the answer is conduction
The suns energy when it reaches the earth's atmosphere encounters earth's plasma and three things happens. Some of the energy is reflected , some is absorbed and the rest is transmitted to the earth.
About 50 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface. In addition, about 9 percent is reflected.About 22 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is reflected by clouds and the atmosphere.About 19 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by clouds and the atmosphere.
It comes from the suns energy
They are either reflected, some hitting clouds others caught by particles in the atmosphere or continue on back in to space - or they are absorbed as heat energy
it does reach the earth in light energy.
radiant
The tropics
At the poles.
Absorbed
The primary source of the suns energy is nuclear fusion of hydrogen. Nuclear fusion occurs in the core of the Earth.
Yes because we use the suns energy and not polluting the earth.
