What is the main idea of this text?

• The source of heat for Earth is the sun, and some of the sun's energy is used to make heat energy

• White light is when the eye views all the different light frequencies at the same time.

• The transfer of heat energy from one substance to another or within a substance is called conduction.

• Heat energy is transferred into and through Earth's atmosphere by radiation, conduction, and convection.
