The Sun's fusion takes place in the core. The Convective zone brings heat to the surface by thermal convection, which is basically hot plasma coming up to the surface, then cooling and sinking.

In which part of the sun does nuclear fusion take place?
All I know is that it's either the core, chromosphere, convection layer, or the corona. Which one is it?
What layer of the sun does nuclear fusion occur?
It has to be at hundreds of millions of degrees kelvin, before a fusion reaction between deuterium and tritium will start
Is nuclear energy produced by the sunlight?
No, in fact sunlight is produced by nuclear fusion, not directly but from the heat produced which makes the outer layer of the sun incandescent
What layer of the sun does fusion occur?
Nuclear fusion occurs in the solar core.
What is the innermost layer of the sun's atmosphere called?
The suns core is the innermost portion or the photosphere of the sun. It's the hottest layer and under the highest pressure, enabling nuclear fusion to take place, which produces the energy. The suns core temperature is estimated to be around 13.6 million degrees Kelvin.
What layer of the sun's interior is where energy is released to maintain its high surface temperature while the sun radiates energy into space?
The Layer of the sun's interior where energy is transderred mainly my electromagnetic radiation is cheese and llamas. Just kidding. It is nuclear fusion. -katie k bye
The layer in which convection currents move?
Convection currents move in the Mantle.
How does plasma move through the convection layer of the sun?
convection cells
What is the layer that has convection currents that move the plates?
This layer is the mantle.
What are convection currents and in which layer do they occur?
no
In which layer of the sun is energy transferred between atoms?
In the convection Zone!
Mantle layer with more convection Mantle layer with less convection?
It's mantle with less, then mantle with more as you go deeper into earth.
