Question: 1 / 400

What is the solar wind?

A stream of electrically charged particles produced by the sun's corona

The solar wind is a stream of electrically charged particles produced by the sun's corona. This option is correct because the solar wind specifically refers to the particles emitted by the sun, rather than the entire universe (option B), a biological community (option C), or the scientific study of interactions (option D). The solar wind is a distinct phenomenon and its definition is limited to the charged particles emitted by the sun.
