Answer:

The correct answer is - An envelope of plasma surrounding the sun.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the provided diagram the C labeled part of the sun is an envelope of plasma surrounding the sun which is called Solar Corona which makes the outermost layer of the atmosphere of the sun. Solar Corona is hotter in comparison to the surface of the sun itself.

Solar Corona is made up of the fourth state of matter known as plasma that has its magnetic field that determined its structural characteristics. Thus, the correct answer is an envelope of plasma surrounding the sun.
