Identify the layers of the Sun's interior. The outermost layer of the Sun's interior? The location where nuclear fusion occurs? The layer of the interior where the temperature drops from 7,000,000°C to 2,000,000°C?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to identify different layers of the Sun's interior based on given descriptions. Specifically, it requests the outermost layer, the location of nuclear fusion, and a layer where the temperature decreases from 7,000,000°C to 2,000,000°C.
Answer
Convection zone, core, radiative zone.
The outermost layer of the Sun's interior is the convection zone. Nuclear fusion occurs in the core. The layer where the temperature drops from 7,000,000°C to 2,000,000°C is the radiative zone.
Answer for screen readers
The outermost layer of the Sun's interior is the convection zone. Nuclear fusion occurs in the core. The layer where the temperature drops from 7,000,000°C to 2,000,000°C is the radiative zone.
More Information
The Sun's structure includes the core where fusion occurs, creating energy. The radiative zone transports this energy via radiation, while the convection zone uses convection currents.
Tips
Common mistakes include confusing the locations of nuclear fusion and energy transport.
