Yes but no. The sun didn’t form the Earth. The Earth and the sun both formed from a primordial star. You don’t hear much talk about the star that actually birthed us, because theres very little we can say for certain about it. We can’t even say for certain if Sol (the sun) is a second or third generation star because we only have vague notions about if the star that produced all the elements that aren’t hydrogen in the solar system was long lived or went nova in under a billion years.
Decaying nuclei is from supernova, but the rocks that formed the solar system and Earth? I’m not sure they can pinpoint an origin. I think atoms of a rock have different origins and at some point, they combined to form the rock, so that’s also an origin. To be verified.
Didn’t the molten core also originate in some way from the sun?

The molten core is hot because a whole lot of rocks crashed into each other. Also, nuclear decay.
Well… those are remnants of a supernova aren’t they? So the velocities to have meaningful impacts came from a sun?
Definitely not what I was thinking or trying to say though, and not our sun, but kinda still all the energy comes from at least, a sun.

Probably
