What is the layer of the sun through which energy travels by convection from the radiative zone to the atmosphere?
From the Sun's core, energy moves through the radiative zone, across the tachocline (transition layer) to the convective zone, and then to the outer convective zone with its visible granulation.
What is the benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun?
The benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun is to keep Earth warm.
How is energy from the core of the sun transmitted to the photosphere?
Through convection inside the sun.
How does energy from the sun move from the core to the photosphere?
Energy from the core travels by radiation through the radiative zone, then by convection through the convection zone.
What layer of the sun's atmosphere is composed of granular cells?
The layer is the photosphere. (Granular cells on the Sun are the tops of convection current cells.)
What is the main source of energy for convection in the atmosphere and the oceans?
The Sun is the main source of energy for convection in the atmosphere and the oceans. The Sun, heat radiated form the Sun is the main source of energy driving convection in the atmosphere and oceans. There is also a small input form geothermal energy.
What is the main source of energy for convection in atmosphere and the ocean?

What is Major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmosphere and ocean?
Vertical convection in both the ocean and atmosphere is caused by uneven HEATing.The source of energy for convection in the ocean and atmosphere is heating from the sun.
What is the major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmosphere and ocean?
the primary source of ocean currents is the sun but other direct energy sources are1. global wind patternsa. trade windsb. the westerly winds*wind is the cause of surface currents in the oceans.
How is the earth's atmosphere trpping thermal energy radiated by the sun?
convection!

What is the source of energy that drives convection within the Earth's atmosphere?
radiation received from the Sun
What drives convection within earths atmosphere?
Uneven heating of the Earths atmosphere and oceans by the sun
How is energy transferred from the core to the surface of sun by convection?
By convection
What isn't part of the sun's atmosphere?
Convection Zone (A+ Anywhere)Corona, Photophere, and Chromosphere are part of the sun's atmosphere.
