Correct Answer: radiation
Solution : The correct answer is radiation.
Heat energy from the sun reaches Earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation. It travels across the vacuum to Earth since it doesn't need a material medium to do so. The only energy source on Earth is the heat from the sun. Photons, which are tiny energy packets, are how this energy gets to Earth.
