Answer:

The correct options are: 1) photosphere, 2) corona, 5) chromosphere

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sun is the giant spherical star that is present in the center of the Solar system. The Sun's visible atmosphere has the following layers:

1. Photosphere is the first or the deepest visible layer of the Sun's atmosphere that radiates light.

2. Chromosphere is the second rosy red colored layer of the Sun's atmosphere.

3. Solar Transition Region is the thin region between chromosphere and corona.

4. Corona is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere.
