Identify the two layers that surround the suns innermost layer

1. Which do solar flares and coronal mass ejections have in common? Select the two correct responses.

They are caused by the sun's changing magnetic field.

They are explosive events that can affect Earth.

2. Which set of terms describes a realistic cause-effect relationship between solar weather and Earth's magnetosphere? Select the two correct answers.

                    geomagnetic storm -- aurora

                 coronal mass ejection -- geomagnetic storm

3. Which accurately describes solar weather? Choose the two correct answers.

             The intensity of solar weather changes frequently.

      Solar flares and sunspots increase as solar maximum approaches.

4. Select the correct answer from the list.

Based on temperature data and rainfall data, scientists think that solar weather has some effect on terrestrial weather.

5.When is the possibility of solar weather affecting terrestrial weather the highest?

                           during solar maximum

6. Identify the two layers that surround the sun's innermost layer. Select the two correct answers.

                                          convection zone

                                           radiative zone

7. For a few hours, some satellites experienced electrical failure and at the same time, radio communications at high latitudes were also disrupted. Which is an astronomer most likely to predict was the cause?

                                solar energetic particles

8. Energy is released in the sun’s core through nuclear fusion. It then is transferred by radiation through the sun’s radiative zone to the conductive zone, where it is transferred to the sun’s surface by conduction. From the surface, energy from the sun is transferred to Earth by radiation.

9. What is the irradiance of the sun dependent on?

       the wavelength of the radiant energy it emits
