Final answer:

The visible part of the Sun when viewed with a filter is the photosphere, which is the opaque layer we can observe directly.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were to look at the Sun with a filter, the part that you can see is the photosphere. The photosphere is the layer where the Sun becomes opaque, making it appear as the visible surface we can directly observe. While the corona is the outermost part of the Sun's atmosphere and the chromosphere lies above the photosphere, it is the photosphere that is visible under normal circumstances to the na-ked eye, especially when using suitable solar filters to protect the eyes from the Sun's intense light.
