Answer:

through space and through the earth's atmosphere to the earth's surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

The heat source for our planet is the sun. Energy from the sun is transferred through space and through the earth's atmosphere to the earth's surface. Since this energy warms the earth's surface and atmosphere, some of it is or becomes heat energy.
