Conduction is a type of heat transmission where the energy must be transferred through a medium. Heat transfer through conduction is not feasible since there is no medium separating the surface of the Earth from the Sun. The method of heat transfer that takes place without the aid of a medium is called radiation. Therefore, we can say that radiation is how the heat from the Sun reaches the Earth.
And answer is false.
