Nuclear fusion and fission. Nitrogen is made into hydrogen. Once a star's supply of nitrogen is gone, the star dims and either collapses, implodes, turns into a supernova; or the core of the star collapses, condenses, sucks in the rest of the star, then contracts to the size of a pencil dot, then quickly expands, and becomes the perfect vacuum that not even light can escape:a black hole. By the way, I'm not getting this from a website, this is my own brain, and I'm only 14. Yes, I know this was a lengthy answer, but I had to explain what happens once it can't derive any more energy. There are limitless possiblilities in this universe, and millions of quite different things can happen to the same thing at the same time, all in different parallel universes. Our universe is an amazing thing, and it is our job to learn as much about it as we can.
Plants convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis, and runners consume plants or plant-eating animals for energy. So, the energy that runners derive from the sun is indirect, as it is passed along the food chain from plants to animals to humans.
Basically, there are two types of organisms: AUTOTROPHS & HETEROTROPHS. Autotrophs: These basically consist of the plants.They derive their energy from the sun by a system called photosynthesis. This energy helps provide them with what is required to survive. Heterotrophs: These are the animals that feed on themselves as well as on plants. They derive their energy from the plants. They get a lower level of energy at each stage of consumption.
Running water does not receive energy directly from the sun. The energy in running water comes from the water cycle, where the sun's energy evaporates water from oceans and lakes, which then falls as precipitation and flows downhill due to gravity, creating streams and rivers that can be used for hydroelectric power generation.
The sun is considered the primary source of energy because it supplies light and heat to Earth through nuclear fusion, which creates an immense amount of energy. This energy is essential for life on Earth as it drives processes like photosynthesis in plants and warms the planet's surface. Additionally, most other sources of energy, such as wind and fossil fuels, ultimately derive their energy from the sun.
The sun is considered the original source of most energy resources because it provides the primary energy input for processes like photosynthesis, which creates biomass, and drives wind and ocean currents that can be harnessed for energy. Fossil fuels also derive their energy from the sun, as they are formed from organic matter that originally received energy from sunlight.
Most of the energy we use on Earth ultimately derive from solar radiation. The exceptions are:* Nuclear energy.* Geothermal energy.* Tidal energy.So, any power plant that generates energy based on these would NOT derive energy from the Sun.

Tidal energy, heat from the interior of Earth, and nuclear energy.
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.
Dandelions derive energy through photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy stored in sugars.
Surface sea wave was generated from wind. It is the sequencing of energy from Solar radiation -> wind motion -> surface wave.
All kind of energy (solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, coal, oil, natural gas) except energy of water falls.
Most producers derive their energy from the sun through the process of photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight into chemical energy. Some producers also obtain energy from geothermal sources, chemical reactions, or other organisms.
Trees derive their energy from sunlight through a process called photosynthesis.
Plants convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis, and runners consume plants or plant-eating animals for energy. So, the energy that runners derive from the sun is indirect, as it is passed along the food chain from plants to animals to humans.

Phytoplankton derive their energy from sunlight in order to carry out photosynthesis.
