Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

I remember looking this up because my gamertag on xbox is Auroras Lights

What happens is our ozone layer is thinning out each year and solar wind particles come in our atmosphere where they mix with the ions. This creates a colorful light show in the sky that we see. It happens at the poles because of a magnetic pull.
