The center of the sun is the ​ (a)   where ​ (b)   occurs, it is the most ​ (c)   portion of the sun.

​ (d)   is an area where convection occurs ​ (e)   from the center of the sun to the surface.

• core
• fusion
• dense
• Convection zone
• moving energy

The (a)   is the brightest and lowest layer of the atmosphere, it is the part we see.

The ​ (b)   cannot be seen because of the brightness of the photosphere.

The ​ (c)   can only be seen during an ​ (d)   , from this area ​ (e)   eject material from the sun.

• Photosphere
• Chromosphere
• Corona
• eclipse
• solar winds
