D. the chromosphere

Asked by blg64549

Answer (2)

Energy production in the Sun takes place in the core , where nuclear fusion occurs. The other layers, including the photosphere and corona , serve different functions but are not involved in the production of energy. Understanding these layers helps us grasp how the Sun generates energy that powers our solar system. ;

Energy production in the Sun occurs in the core through the process of nuclear fusion, where hydrogen combines to form helium, releasing vast amounts of energy. The other layers, including the photosphere, chromosphere, and corona, serve different functions but do not generate energy. Thus, the correct answer is C. the core .
