Ess The Sun

Process of combining nuclei of small atoms into more massive nuclei.

• Nuclear fusion

• Nuclear fission
• Nucleic Fusion
• Nucleic Fission

The central part of the sun where nuclear fusion occurs.

• Radiative zone
• Core
• Convective zone
• Photosphere

Thin layer of gases, just above the photosphere.

• Corona
• Convective zone
• Chromosphere
• Radiative zone

The area between the core and the convective zone in which energy moves by radiation.

What effect does the magnetic field of the sun’s corona have on subatomic particles?

• It stops all of them.
• It stops some of them.
• It cannot stop any of them.
• It causes the sun to be polarized.
