Match each layer of the Sun to its description.
Understand the Problem
The question asks to match the layers of the Sun (core, convection zone, and radiation zone) to their corresponding descriptions. This requires knowledge of the structure of the Sun.
Answer
Core: energy-producing; Radiation zone: middle layer; Convection zone: outermost layer.
The core is the energy-producing part of the Sun's interior. The radiation zone is the middle layer of the Sun's interior. The convection zone is the outermost layer of the Sun's interior.
Answer for screen readers
The core is the energy-producing part of the Sun's interior. The radiation zone is the middle layer of the Sun's interior. The convection zone is the outermost layer of the Sun's interior.
More Information
The core is where nuclear fusion occurs, generating the Sun's energy. The radiation zone transports energy outward through radiation. The convection zone transfers energy by convection currents to the surface.
Tips
Avoid confusing the layers by focusing on their distinct functions: core for fusion, radiation zone for photon transport, and convection zone for convection currents.
