C
helium, light, and heat
D
heat, light, and gaseous energy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The energy from the Sun-both heat and light energy-originates from a nuclear fusion process that is occurring inside the core of the Sun. The specific type of fusion that occurs inside of the Sun is known as proton-proton fusion.

Detailed explanation-2: -One of the main resources coveted by major powers and located on the Moon is helium-3, an isotope that is known since 1988 to be useful for nuclear fusion.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fusion reactions occur when two nuclei come together to form one atom. The reaction that happens in the sun fuses two Hydrogen atoms together to produce Helium. It looks like this in a very simplified way: H + H → He + ENERGY.
