Humans can't get energy directly from the sun, they get it indirectly via plants.
Plants fix the energy from the sun by photosynthesis; this enables them to grow & become food.
Humans eat the plants, or eat the herbivores (e.g. beef cattle) which have grown & produced meat by eating the plants.
So you could say that the solar energy that humans obtain is either 2nd or 3rd hand.

the sun is a priceless ball of gas that helps the enviorment survive!!!! Without the sun nobody would live!!!
How are humans dependent on energy?
Humans obtain energy by exercising daily,and staying in the sun
Where do plants get the energy to make food?
Photosynthesis is the act of trapping the light energy from the sun and turning it into chemical energy in the molecule starch. The energy it traps comes from high energy photons.
How is the energy of the sun transferred through a food web?
The sun allow plants to photosynthesis which is to make food and grow. The plants eating animals will eat them and then the meat eating animals will eat animals. Then us humans will eat the animals and plants.
