Most of them. It is far easier to list the few that do not come from the Sun: (a) nuclear energy, (b) heat from the Earth's interior, (c) tidal energy. Everything else comes from the Sun, including solar energy, wind energy, wave energy, lightning energy, etc.

Why is the sun the most important source of energy?
Because almost all processes occurring on the surface of the earth rely on the sun as their ultimate source of energy. The only ones that don't are those that rely on geothermal energy.
Why does the energy you get from many of our resources come from the sun?
Because the Sun is the only source of energy we have. Everything else like coal, oil, gas, hydroelectric, is or was produced by the action of the Sun's light and heat.
Why do tidal nuclear and geothermal energy resources not depend on the sun?
Tidal energy comes from the energy of Earth's rotation. This is unrelated to the Sun's radiation. Nuclear energy comes from elements that are available on Earth - it doesn't depend on the Sun's radiation either. Geothermal energy comes from these same elements, which gradually decay, keeping Earth's interior hot.
Space satellites rely on this type of energy?
Solar energy
What energy you get from the sun?
Sun energy.
Is there anything on earth that does not rely on the sun?
All living things rely, ultimately, on the sun's energy.
Why is the sun the most important source of energy?

What are the nonrenewable resources that do not derive their energy from the sun?
Nuclear Energy Geothermal Energy
What is the similarity between a fly and a tree?
They both rely on the energy of the Sun to live.
Where does the energy in food from?
Energy in food comes from the sun. The sun is the source of energy in all food, because at some level in the food chain animals rely on animals that eat plants and plants derive their energy from the sun.
What are inexastible resources?
sun lightwindgeotherrmal energysolar energy
Does the sun gives energy to producers?
Yes, because the sun's energy is one of the main resources to produce plants.
How do some producers and consumers each rely light from the sun?
The majority of producers (eg green plants) rely on the sun's energy to produce food. Primary consumers eat plants so in an indirect way the consumers are also relying on the sun's energy for their food
Name two energy resources that do not depend on the sun?
it is coal and wind energy
Does the sun give off more energy than birds?
The sun gives more energy. Absolutely. Especially because birds use energy that came from the sun and was stored in their food. All plants and animals rely on the sun for energy, either directly or indirectly.
Discuss sun light as an energy resources?
It's hydro
What are more inexastable resources?
