C Correct answer
Explanation

'The sun' requires the definite article 'the' because 'sun' is a unique entity in our solar system - there is only one. When referring to singular, one-of-a-kind natural objects (the sun, the moon, the sky), we always use 'the.' 'A' or 'an' would imply there are multiple suns to choose from.
