Question

daily, from the sun warms earths surface by radiation. some of the thermal energy from earths surface is reflected back into space. but some warms the air that touches earths surface through conduction. the diagram below is a model showing how thermal energy is transferred from the sun to earth and from earth to the air. use the words to label the diagram. energy escaping into space energy warming earth energy warming the air

Explanation:

The Sun transfers energy to Earth via radiation, and the first step of energy transfer from the Sun to Earth is the energy that warms Earth. So the label for the arrow from the Sun to Earth should be "energy warming Earth".

Answer:

energy warming Earth
