Which is the part of sun where the energy is transported from superhot interior to cold outer layers by photons?

  1. Core

  2. Radiative Zone

  3. Convective zone

  4. None
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Radiative zone lies between the core and the convective zone. In radiative zone, energy resulted from the nuclear fusion in the core travels upwards by photons.
