1. The Core : The innermost layer of the sun is the core.
2. Solar Envelope: Outside of the core is the radiative envelope, which is surrounded by the convective envelope. The temperature is 4 million kelvins (7 million degrees F).
3. Photosphere: It is the zone from which the sunlight we see is emitted. It is a comparatively thin layer of low pressure gasses surrounding the envelope. It is only a few hundred kilometers thick, with a temperature of 6000 K.
4. Chromosphere: In an eclipse, a red circle around the outside of the sun can sometimes can be seen. Its red coloring is caused by the abundance of hydrogen.
5. Sunspots: They are dark spots on the photosphere.
6. Corona: The outermost layer of the sun. Only visible during eclipses, it is a low density cloud of plasma with higher transparency than the inner layers. The white corona is a million times less bright than the inner layers of the sun, but is many times larger.
The corona is hotter than some of the inner layers. Its average temperature is 1 million K (2 million degrees F) but in some places it can reach 3 million K (5 million degrees F).

Does the temperature in the layers of the sun's atmosphere evenly distributed?
The sun does not have an atmosphere. In the earth, the temperature in the different layers is not evenly distributed.
What is an interesting fact about the sun?
It has over 6 layers, one of which is the corona. You can only see the corona during a total solar eclipse.
Why are there different layers of the sun?
The sun has an extremely powerful gravitational field, and as a result, denser materials tend to fall to the lower layers.
