Question

question 10
1 pts
as one moves outward from the photosphere to the corona, what happens to the temperature and the density of the gases?
the temperature of the gases
the density of the gases

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The photosphere is the visible surface of the Sun. The corona is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere. As one moves outward from the photosphere to the corona, the temperature increases (due to complex heating mechanisms in the solar atmosphere). The density of the gases decreases because the corona is much more tenuous (less - dense) than the photosphere.

Answer:

The temperature of the gases increases. The density of the gases decreases.
