What are the suns 4 main areas?

The sun's four main areas are the core, the radiative zone, the convective zone, and the photosphere. The core is where nuclear fusion occurs, generating energy. The radiative and convective zones are layers of the sun where energy is transported outward through different mechanisms. The photosphere is the visible surface of the sun.

How do stars make radiant energy?

Thermonuclear fusion in the core of the star heats the material of the star. A series of complex energy transfer mechanisms transport the heat from the core to the photosphere of the star. The photosphere then emits electromagnetic radiation.


Label and identify the parts of the sun?

The Sun is composed of the core, radiative zone, convective zone, photosphere, chromosphere, and corona. The core is where nuclear fusion occurs, creating energy. The photosphere is the visible surface of the Sun, while the corona is the outermost layer that is only visible during a solar eclipse.
