What does the Sun give Us?

Here we will learn about the major contributions of the Sun in our lives.

Answer: Sunlight is essential for plants for the process of photosynthesis, and it is ultimately the plants that give us oxygen, absorb carbon-dioxide, give crops, influence weather etc. The sun’s heat is immense and is harnessed by means of solar panels to provide an alternate source of energy. The energy radiated by the sun also heats the seas and oceans and therefore influences the weather patterns, gives rise to phenomena like land-breeze and sea-breeze and balances the temperature to sustain life on earth. The Sun is at a perfect distance from Earth which maintains the Earth’s atmosphere such that it neither becomes too hot or cold for human civilizations and animal species to exist.
