 is a star because it is made up of light and heat.
 is the only star in the solar system.
 As a star, it is a source of light and heat.
 life on earth would be impossible.
 our earth would just be a frozen sphere of hard rock.
 our earth would just be a frozen sphere of hard rock.
 we cannot live in a cold, cold place.
 green plants won’t be able to produce food to
other living things like us.
 We cannot live too, without food.

CORONA
 Is the visible surface of the sun and this part has yellow color.
 It is not a solid surface, but rather a layer of gasses.
 And the temperature is about 5,500 degrees C.
PHOTOSPHERE
z
 Is a dark patch on the sun’s surface.
SUNSPOT
 Is the center of sun and extremely hot.
 A star shines because of its core
 The Core’s temperature is 10 million to 20 million degrees
Celsius.
CORE
 Outer part of sun (atmosphere)
 Looks like a crown of bright light glowing
 It is composed of extremely thin dust and gases
 Temperature is about 2,000,000 degrees C
 During a total eclipse, the corona becomes visible to earth.
CORONA
 Cloudlike structures
 Large amount of gases
 Looks like a huge flame coming out of the sun
PROMINENCE
 Above the photosphere
 Thick layer of boiling and spinning gases.
 Viewed as a red rim around sun
 And the temperature is about 27,800 degrees C.
