A
other planets

the Sun
C
Alpha Centauri
D
wind
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Earth’s climate system depends entirely on the Sun for its energy. Solar radiation warms the atmosphere and is fundamental to atmospheric composition, while the distribution of solar heating across the planet produces global wind patterns and contributes to the formation of clouds, storms, and rainfall.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nothing is more important to us on Earth than the Sun. Without the Sun’s heat and light, the Earth would be a lifeless ball of ice-coated rock. The Sun warms our seas, stirs our atmosphere, generates our weather patterns, and gives energy to the growing green plants that provide the food and oxygen for life on Earth.

Detailed explanation-3: -The primary cause of weather change is the Sun as the heat transferred from the Sun is absorbed by the Earth and spreads in its atmosphere. Due to Earth’s rotation and tilted axis, the Sun’s rays strike the Earth at different angles throughout the day.

Detailed explanation-4: -The climate of a region depends on many factors including the amount of sunlight it receives, its height above sea level, the shape of the land, and how close it is to oceans. Since the equator receives more sunlight than the poles, climate varies depending on its distance from the equator.

Detailed explanation-5: -Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Weather can change from hour-to-hour, day-to-day, month-to-month or even year-to-year. A region’s weather patterns, usually tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its climate. Different parts of the world have different climates.

Detailed explanation-6: -The weather is mainly affected by the sun that produces heat and raise the temperature of earth’s surface, oceans and atmosphere. the sun’s heat will change the atmosphere more frequently. The time of sunrise and sunset also changes throughout the year.
