That would be an outer layer called the, "Photosphere".

The layer of the sun that radiates most of the light that reaches earth is called the?
The Photosphere is the layer of the sun or any star that radiates light. This layer is extended into the Sun's surface until its plasma shows opacity, and reaches the equivalent of an optical depth of two-thirds. The Photosphere is the deepest part of a star that has photon transparency depending on wavelength.
Why can't you see deeper into the sun than the photosphere?
The photosphere is the layer in the sun's atmosphere that is dense enough to emit plenty of light but not so dense that the light can't escape. Below the photosphere, the gas is denser and hotter therefore radiates plenty of light, but that light cannot escape from the sun because it is blocked by the outer layers of gas. so you cannot detect light from these deeper layers.Sources: Book The Solar System by Seeds/Backman (7th Edition) P.143
What sun layer emits visible light?
The Photosphere.
The dense layer of the sun that blocks energy and light is the?
radiative zone
Which layer of the sun gives off heat and light?
The photosphere gives off heat and visible light.

What layer of the sun radiates the most energy?
the innermost core of the sun
What are the caues of ultraviolet light?
It is a form of light that radiates from the sun.
The layer of the aun that radiates most of the light that reaches Earth is the?
Photosphere
Name a huge gas sphere that radiates light?
The Sun.
What radiates most of the sunlight we see?
The photosphere of the sun emits visible light.
Does fusion produce light?
The sun is powered by nuclear fusion, and the resulting hot material in the sun and specifically on its surface radiates visible light along with other frequencies.
Which layer produces heat and light for the sun?
The chromosphere produces the light and heat for the sun.
How does the light travel from the sun?
It radiates outwards in all directions at about 300,000 kilometres per second. A tiny percentage of that light reaches our earth about eight minutes after leaving the sun.
Use radiates in a sentence?
the sun has many radiates. that's cool. :)
How does pollution affects polarbears?
Pollution in the air thins out the ozone layer making which causes the greenhouse effect. The sun radiates through the holes of the ozone layer. The purpose of this layer is to protect us from the sun's radiation. Therefore this will cause the ice to melt and polar bears needs the ice.
Is the sun the sky's light?
No, it is not. The sun radiates UV rays (Ultra Violet) which bounce off of objects, or is absorbed by them such as the colour black, and reaches our eyes so that we can see them. The sun lights things up, it is not the light of anything but itself. Yes. The light we perceive as the sky's light does originate in the sun.
