Let’s match each number on the Sun diagram to the correct part using the word bank.
We’ll go one by one:
1.) This is the very center of the Sun — super hot and dense. That’s the
Core.
2.) Around the core, energy moves through radiation. That’s the
Radiative Zone.
3.) Outside the radiative zone, heat moves by convection (like boiling water). That’s the
Convection Zone.
4.) The visible surface we see from Earth — it looks grainy. That’s the
Photosphere.
5.) Those little grainy spots on the photosphere? Those are called
Granules.
6.) The outermost layer of the Sun’s atmosphere — faint and wispy, seen during eclipses. That’s the
Corona.
7.) Dark spots on the Sun’s surface caused by magnetic activity. Those are
Sunspots.
8.) A loop or bump sticking out from the surface — often near sunspots. That’s a
Prominence.
9.) The layer just above the photosphere — reddish glow during eclipses. That’s the
Chromosphere.
Now let’s write them in order:
Final Answer:
1.) Core
2.) Radiative Zone
3.) Convection Zone
4.) Photosphere
5.) Granules
6.) Corona
7.) Sunspots
8.) Prominences
9.) Chromosphere
