Question

in what ways does the sun play a critical role in providing energy for all living things on earth? the sun converts hydrogen to helium in a three - step process in which energy is released at every step. energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy by photosynthesis. the sun’s energy is not distributed evenly over earth’s surface. all of the above

Explanation:

The sun converts hydrogen to helium via nuclear fusion releasing energy. This solar - energy is converted to chemical energy by photosynthesis in plants, which is the base of the food - chain for all living things. Also, the uneven distribution of solar energy over Earth's surface drives weather patterns and climate, which in turn affects the habitats and life - cycles of living organisms.

Answer:

D. All of the above
