The Sun
The sun and it's layers
Core
The core of the sun is located in the middle of the sun. The core converts the gases of the sun into energy in nuclear fusion.
Radiative zone
The radiative zone is located in between the core and the convective zone. in this zone, energy created in the core is sent out as electromagnetic radiation.
Convective zone
The energy made in the core and sent through the radiative zone is sent through this zone by convection.
Photosphere
this is the cover of the sun that emits heat and radiation that was made in the core.
Chromosphere
an irregular layer above the photo sphere where the temperature rises from 6000°C to about 20,000°C.
Corona
An aura of plasma that surrounds the sun.
Sunspots
Prominence
A large bright feature that looks like gas, that comes out from the edge of the sun
Flare
Radiation is emitted from the sun across the electromagnetic spectrum
Aurora
