• Chromosphere

Multiple Choice

These are caused by solar winds when they come in contact with the Earth's magnetic field

• sunspots

• aurora

• solar flares

• The core

Multiple Choice

Sun spots are areas in the photosphere that are

• hotter than the surrounding gases

Multiple Choice

In the image, the heat from the fire is an example of

• conduction

• convection

• radiation

Multiple Choice

In this image, the boiling water in the pot represents this form of heat transfer. Particles closest to the source heat up and then are carried upward through currents, then as they cool, they move back down.

• conduction

• convection

• radiation

Multiple Choice
