please note:
1. energy could not be produced, it could only be converted
2. there is only one sun, there are many stars
since the question itself is obsolete, the question will be assumed as "how does the sun emit heat and light"
the sun is estimated to compose of mainly hydrogen (aprx. 75%) and the light and heat are the results of nuclear fusion
be noted that not only hydrogen is used in the sun as fuel, but i will pick hydrogen as an example
hydrogen isotopes tritium and deuterium are "crashed" together to form an new isotope, in the process there is tremendous heat, this is a type of nuclear fusion, which explains the heat part of your question
the light part could be easily explained, the materials of a star (including the sun) is in a physical state known as plasma, plasma is ionised gas which acts very differently, and photons (light particles) will be released when plasma transit between states, which occurs quite often with an assortment of reasons

What is the event that take place as energy from the sun travels through an energy pyramid?
?
Can you describe the events that take place as energy from the sun travels through an energy pyramid?
I have no clue
Why did temperatures on the moon vary so much?
Because there is no atmosphere the greenhouse effect does not take place. All of the suns rays are reaching the moon with full power.
How long will it take the get the suns heat to earth?
It will take 8 minutes for the light from the sun to reach Earth. The actual heat of the sun does not reach all the way out to Earth. The warmth on Earth comes from the conversion of light energy to heat energy.
Why can elements produced in the sun but not in the earth atmosphere?
The earth's atmosphere is not hot enough for thermonuclear fusion to take place.
Where does energy conversion take place on the sun?
Well when you have a solar pannel your converting the suns light energy into energy that you can use. When you have lets say an ice cream, your converting the suns heat energy to energy that makes your ice cream melt. By: Linsey M. Chancellor
Could production and consumption take place with money?
could production and consumption take place without money
How long does it take for the suns solar energy to reach earth?
About 8-1/3 minutes.
In order for production to take place the question of what is to be produced must be answered. Which of the following is another question that must be answered in order for production to take place?
how is production to be organized
Which is the innermost layer of the sun?
The suns core is the innermost portion or the photosphere of the sun. It's the hottest layer and under the highest pressure, enabling nuclear fusion to take place, which produces the energy. The suns core temperature is estimated to be around 13.6 million degrees Kelvin.
What do plants get their food from?
Plants do not make food at night because food (glucose) production is dependent upon light. Photosynthesis is powered by sunlights energy producing NADPH, and ATP. These molecules are essential for the production of glucose in the calvin cycle. Therefore without the light dependent reactions, the light independent reactions associated with photosynthesis cannot take place.
Can the suns energy can be trapped?
I'm no expert but i do not think can take ALL of it but maybe a little hope it helps.
What year did mass production take place?
....................... .......................
In a cell most of the chemical reactions take place in the?
Mitochondrion is the cell organell that is directly a part of production. This is a cell of energy.
In order for production to take place what questions must be ask?
How is production to be organized
How does the transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant station?
The transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant includes:Potential energy -> kinetic energy-> electrical energy
What question must be asked in order for economic production to take place?
How is production to be organized
