Block 5 – Lesson 2
![Page 2: 5th - Block 5 - the sun a source of heat and light](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a3ec381a28abde378b475b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Do you think the Sun is a
natural source of heat and
light?
![Page 3: 5th - Block 5 - the sun a source of heat and light](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a3ec381a28abde378b475b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Most of the Earth’s energy comes from the Sun. It is
important because it provides light and heat. Without the
Sun’s heat and light, there would be no life on Earth, and
the oceans would freeze.

Our planet without the Sun

Most radiations from the Sun is absorbed by the
atmosphere. The types of radiation that reach the
Earth’s surface are visible light (white), ultraviolet light,
and infrared light.

Solar light is energy. It heats the Earth and it is the
force behind climate and atmospheric weather.
When the Earth receives light from space, part of it
is absorbed and the rest bounces back to the
atmosphere through reflection.
![Page 10: 5th - Block 5 - the sun a source of heat and light](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042716/55a3ec381a28abde378b475b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Reflection is the bouncing of the light when it hits a
body, like the Earth and clouds. The Sun’s light also
experiences a change of direction when passing
from one material to another, for example from air to
water, or from hot to cold air.

In this case, the rays of the Sun are refracted.
A rainbow is formed in this way.

Heat is another form of energy. It can pass from one
body to another. Temperature is measured with a
thermometer.

When the Earth’s surface is heated, it receives the
heat radiation. In ecosystems, one part of this
energy is used to evaporate water and the rest
returns to the atmosphere.

Climate factors are: temperature, wind, humidity,
precipitation and pressure. The relationship between
these five factors and the Sun’s radiations, altitude
and latitude determines the types of climate.

The types of climate
determine the
characteristics of the
fauna and flora in
ecosystems.
