A
The sun's rays
💡 Explanation:
The sun's rays which fall over the Torrid Zone travel shorter distances and heat up a smaller surface leading to higher temperatures.
The spectrum of the Sun's solar radiation is close to that of a black body with a temperature of about 5,800 K. The Sun also emits X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, and even radio waves; the only direct signature of the nuclear process is the emission of neutrinos.
