Answer:

The part of the sphere labeled A is the radius.

Explanation:

A sphere is a 3 dimensional object with a definite volume formed from a circle. Some parts of a sphere are: center, radius, circumference, diameter etc. The radius is a major part of a sphere. The radius of a sphere is a measure of the length of the distance from its center to its circumference. The distance, i.e radius, is constant considering various points on the circumference of a sphere.

Since C represents the center of the sphere, the part of the sphere labeled A is the radius.

Answer:

Radius.

Explanation:

Remember that a sphere is the three-dimensional analogue of the circumference, which means it's also definas as all points that move around a center from a constant distance called radius.

In this case, the highlighted characteristic showed is the radius, the constant distance from the circumference of the circle to its center.
