The sun naturally gives off radiation through ultraviolet rays but the ozone layer around earth blocks most of the harmful radiation, a few years ago people using spray-cans with CFC's in them (chlorofluorocarbons) created a hole in the ozone layer over the arctic CFC's were banned but they did their damage.
What else can I help you with?
How does energy from the sun reaches us?
Radiation.
What is a form of oxygen that protects us from high-energy radiation emitted by the sun?
Ozone is a form of oxygen that protects us from high-energy radiation emitted by the sun. It is found in the Earth's stratosphere and absorbs the majority of ultraviolet (UV) radiation before it reaches the Earth's surface, helping to shield living organisms from its harmful effects.
What kinds of radiation come from the sun?
The sun emits three main types of radiation: visible light, ultraviolet (UV) light, and infrared (heat) radiation. Visible light enables us to see, UV light can cause sunburns and skin damage, while infrared radiation warms the Earth.
How much radiation does the sun produce?
44888000900 kg of radiation gas, obviously slowly killing itself.
The majority of the sun's radiation output occurs as?
The majority of the sun's radiation output occurs as visible light. This visible light is what we see and feel as sunlight.
How does energy from the sun reaches us?
Radiation.
How is the heat we feel from the sun transferred to us: through conduction, convection, or radiation?
The heat we feel from the sun is transferred to us primarily through radiation.
What layer protects us from what kind of radiation?
The ozone layer protects us from the radiation of sun. This radiation is called ultraviolet radiation and is very harmful.
Does the thermosphere protect us from ultraviolet radiation from the sun?
False
The sun heats us by the method of?
The sun heats us through the process of radiation. Electromagnetic waves from the sun, including infrared and visible light, travel through space and reach Earth's surface, where they are absorbed and converted into heat energy.
The sun's energy reaches us by a method called?
Mainly through radiation (electromagnetic waves, especially light).
What is produced to protect us from harmful substances?
The ozone layer protects us from the sun's harmful radiation.
Which component of the biosphere contains oxygen that you breathe as well as oxygen that protects us from radiation?
The atmosphere in the biosphere contains the oxygen that we breathe. The ozone layer, also part of the atmosphere, is responsible for protecting us from harmful radiation from the sun by absorbing most of the sun's ultraviolet radiation.
What is happening inside the sun that allows us to see it?
Inside the Sun - in the core - energy is produced. This keeps the Sun hot, producing the radiation which we see.Inside the Sun - in the core - energy is produced.

Does the gravitational field protect us from the sun?
No, the Earth's gravitational field does not protect us from the sun. The gravitational pull between the Earth and sun keeps Earth in orbit, but it does not provide any physical protection from the sun's radiation or heat. The Earth's atmosphere and magnetic field help shield us from harmful solar radiation.
How does heat from the sun reach us?
Sunlight or Solar Radiation is essentially photons, or packets of energy, emmited from the suns surface, which are able to travel through the vacuum of space at the speed of light. This comes to us in a range of wavelengths, including Visible light, Ultra violet and Infra red radiation.
How do the sun rays protect us from cosmic radiation?
The sun's rays create a protective barrier around Earth called the magnetosphere. This magnetosphere deflects and traps cosmic radiation, preventing it from reaching the surface of the planet and harming living organisms.
