What role does the Sun play in cloud formation?

The Sun revolves around the Earth causing clouds to form.

The Sun does not have a role in the formation of clouds.

When the Sun sets, it allows temperatures on Earth to cool, leading to cloud formation.

Heat from the Sun provides energy for water to evaporate from the Earth's surface.
