Answer:

The equatorial regions of the sun rotating more rapidly than the polar regions

Step-by-step explanation:

The sun, that is made mainly of plasma, that is, a gas state under very high temperatures, it can behave different depending the are of the sun.

The poles and the equatorial part don´t have the same rotation speed, and this because is not a solid body as the Earth that all the planet present the same rotation speed.

In the sun, as the latitude increases, the rotation speed decreases.
