Final answer:

Radiation transfers energy through space from the Sun to Earth, warming the planet's surface.


Explanation:

Radiation is the only method of heat transfer that doesn't require a medium, allowing energy to travel through empty space. The Sun's energy reaches Earth through radiation, warming the planet's surface. Earth then radiates some of this absorbed energy back into space in the form of longwave radiation or heat.
