To effectively label the diagram of the sun, you’ll want to use the following terms:
1. Inner Core
2. Outer Core
3. Radiative Zone
4. Convection Zone
5. Photosphere
6. Chromosphere
7. Corona
8. Sunspots
9. Solar Flare
10. Solar Prominence
11. Granules
Explanation:
– Inner Core: The innermost layer, solid and extremely hot.
– Outer Core: Liquid layer surrounding the inner core, responsible for creating the sun’s magnetic field.
– Radiative Zone: The layer where energy is transferred outward through radiation.
– Convection Zone: The outer layer of the sun’s interior where energy is transferred by convection currents.
– Photosphere: The visible surface of the sun that emits light.
– Chromosphere: The layer above the photosphere, visible during a solar eclipse; it’s less dense and contains hydrogen.
– Corona: The outer atmosphere of the sun, extending millions of kilometers into space, visible during a total solar eclipse.
– Sunspots: Dark spots on the photosphere that indicate cooler areas with strong magnetic activity.
– Solar Flare: Sudden eruptions of energy on the sun’s surface.
– Solar Prominence: Large, bright features extending outward from the sun’s surface.
