Question

Which correctly shows the temperature relationship among the layers of the Sun?

Answer 1

The inner layers are the Core, Radiative Zone and Convection Zone. The outer layers are the Photosphere, the Chromosphere, the Transition Region and the Corona.

Explanation: The outer layers are the Photosphere, the Chromosphere, the Transition Region and the Corona.

Answer 2

The temperature increases from the core to the radiative zone to the convective zone. Option B

From the radiative zone to the convective zone, the temperature rises. This is consistent with the interior structure of the Sun, where extreme heat is produced by nuclear fusion at the core and this temperature often increases as one moves through the radiative and convective zones.

The temperature trend inside the Sun is not adequately represented by Options A and C. Because the temperature distribution in the Sun's layers is not random, Option D is inaccurate.

Which correctly shows the temperature relationship among the layers of the Sun?

A. The temperature decreases from the core to the radiative zone to the convective zone.

B. The temperature increases from the core to the radiative zone to the convective zone.

C. The temperature is constant across the core, radiative zone, and convective zone.

D. The temperature varies randomly within the layers of the Sun.
