The layer of the sun's atmosphere that produces it's characteristic color?
The Chromosphere's layer is just about the temperature layer of the Sun. It is visible as a flash of color at the beginning and end of full solar eclipses. The temperature increases with height going up to around 20000 Kelvin at the top. The sun is actually white in color. The false color of orange is because of blue lighted atmospheric scattering.
What is the relation between the core and the photosphere?
An astronomical objects photosphere is the depth of the outer shell of light radiation surrounding the star. The term is derived from Ancient Greek.
What is cromosphere?
A chromosphere is a layer of the sun or other stars. This layer is red and gaseous and is found above the photosphere.
What causes the Sun's light and heat energy that reaches earth?
Among other things - your existence.
What type of mountains are formed when tension causes large blocks of Earth's crust to drop down relative to other blocks?
Large blocks of Earth's crust that drops down relative to other blocks, will form a rift valley (trench). The Great Rift Valley in Africa is one example.
What happens on the photosphere?
The photosphere is the visible layer of the sun (or any other star). Light energy and photons and other solar radiation are given off and escape the sun from the photosphere. Photo=light.
What is the name of the sun's surface layer?
The name of the sun's surface layer is called the chromosphere. The other layers of the sun is called photosphere and convection zone.

Does photosphere block most of the light from the other layer?
Depends - Where on the earth are you referring?
How hot does the sun get every day?
The sun is roughly the same temperature all the time.the visible photosphere is about 5,000Cthe corona (outside the photosphere) is about 2,000,000Cthe core (where hydrogen fusion happens) is about 13,000,000CThe sun has several other layers, each with its own temperature.
How much hotter is the solar corona than the other layers of the sun?
The hottest part of the sun is actually its center, estimated by calculations to be about 1.57E7 Kelvin.The corona is about  5E6 Kelvin.The photosphere is 5,772 Kelvin.The various layers of the sun from the center out to the photosphere decline steadily but not smoothly. Obviously there is an internal layer of the sun at the same temperature as the corona.
What is the photosphere of the sun?
The photosphere is the visible surface of a star, such as the Sun. It consists of a zone in which the gaseous layers change from being completely opaque to radiation, to being transparent. For example, the photosphere of the Sun is the layer from which the light we actually see (with the human eye) is emitted.
What Layers of the Sun can be seen with some type of telescope?
DO NOT LOOK AT THE SUN WITH A CONVENTIONAL TELESCOPE. Doing so can cause massive eye damage and blindness. Theoretically only the photosphere would be visible anyway.Scientists can use special telescopes (such as ultraviolet telescopes) to see other parts of the sun (such as the corona).
What is the atmosphere of the sun?
Corona the corona is the Sun's atmosphere,extending out several million miles from the Sun's visible face,the photosphere despite its extent,it is exceedingly faint,shining with only one-millionth as much light as the photosphere.For this reason the corona is most easily photographed during a solar eclipse,when the photosphere blocked by the Moon.A capful of gas from the photosphere contains a trillion times more gas particles than a cupful from the corona. Only the Sun's outer layers, collectively referred to as the solar 'atmosphere', can be observed directly. There are distinct regions to the solar atmosphere: the photosphere, the chromosphere, and the corona. These three regions have substantially different properties from each other, with regions of gradual transition between them.
Which type of spectrum do most stars have?
Most stars have absorption spectra. In other words, stars possess thin outer layers that allow light to pass through. These layers produce what are called absorption lines. This means the light from the sun and stars are absorption spectra.
What is cromosphere?
A chromosphere is a layer of the sun or other stars. This layer is red and gaseous and is found above the photosphere.
