6. What happens in the core of a star?
- Most fusion takes place in the core because it is the hottest part and nuclei are close enough to fuse.
- This is where convective currents transfer energy to the surface of the star
- This is where energy is radiated into space
- This is where photons of radiation are transferred to surface of star.
7. What happens in the convective zone of a star?
- This is where energy is radiated into space
- This is where photons of radiation are transferred to surface of star.
- This is where convective currents transfer energy to the surface of the star
- Most fusion takes place in the core because it is the hottest part and nuclei are close enough to fuse.
8. What are the four main zones of a star?
- Core, Photosphere, Convective zone and Radioactive zone.
- Core, Photosphere, Radioactive zone and tectonic zone
9. What happens in the radioactive zone of a star?
- This is where energy is radiated into space
- This is where photons of radiation are transferred to surface of star.
- Most fusion takes place in the core because it is the hottest part and nuclei are close enough to fuse.
- This is where convective currents transfer energy to the surface of the star
10. What is one of Hubble's discoveries?
- That a nebula was actually a star
