Question

Earth's magnetosphere acts as a protective shield against the dangerous, high-energy solar wind. The magnetosphere can be visualized as a large sheath surrounding Earth and extending out into space. Two important structures, known as the Van Allen belts, compose the inner regions of the magnetosphere and directly affect the auroral events seen on Earth. Label the appropriate regions of the inner magnetosphere.

Answer 1

The inner and outer Van Allen radiation belts in the Earth's magnetosphere are doughnut shaped regions with strong-energy particles.

At the magnetic axis which passes through the magnetic North and South poles intersect the magnetic field lines of the Earth.

The northern lights, also referred to as the Aurora borealis, and the aurora australis, commonly referred to as the Southern lights, both manifest in the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

Even if the terms are various, they both refer to the very same occurrence seen on Earth from different regional areas.
