in what part of the sun is matter converted into energy?
core
corona
radiative zone
convective zone

Explanation:

The sun's core is where nuclear fusion occurs, converting matter (hydrogen nuclei) into energy (through fusion into helium, releasing energy). The corona is the sun's outer atmosphere, the radiative zone is where energy is transported outward by radiation, and the convective zone is where energy is transported by convection. Only the core has the extreme temperature and pressure for fusion (matter - energy conversion).

Answer:

A. core
