Question

which of the following protects earth’s atmosphere from solar wind? (1 point)

○ hydrogen atoms

○ convection currents

○ magnetosphere

○ radiative zone

Explanation:

The magnetosphere is a region around Earth dominated by its magnetic field. It deflects charged particles from solar wind, preventing them from stripping away Earth's atmosphere. Hydrogen atoms are not a protective layer for this purpose; convection currents are related to heat transfer in fluids; the radiative zone is an internal layer of the Sun, not part of Earth's protective systems.

Answer:

magnetosphere
