Detailed explanation-1: -The outer layers are the Photosphere, the Chromosphere, the Transition Region and the Corona.
Detailed explanation-2: -Chromosphere. The sixth layer is where the temperature begins to rise again. A thin, reddish layer, the chromosphere is seen only during eclipses or with special solar-viewing equipment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Starting from the middle, the Sun’s layers are the core, the radiative zone, the convective zone, the photosphere, the chromosphere, and the corona. The two layers that are particularly interesting are the core (where nuclear fusion happens) and the photosphere (the brightest layer).
Detailed explanation-4: -The radiative zone is the second inner layer of the Sun. It sits outside of the core, and it holds its extremely high temperature. The zone itself has a temperature of around 7 million degrees Fahrenheit.
Detailed explanation-5: -The third layer of the sun’s atmosphere is the corona. Like the chromosphere, the sun’s corona can only be seen during a total solar eclipse (or with NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (opens in new tab)). It appears as white streamers or plumes of ionized gas that flow outward into space.
