Respuesta :

The correct answer to your question is A. : Streams of charged particles from the sun mix with Earth's atmosphere.  I took a test with this same question, i got it correct!

The northern lights or the aurora borealis are the lights that are produced by the reflection of the sun EMR on the earth's upper atmosphere.

  • The atomic electrons that are produced by the sun and their interaction with the layers of the higher atmosphere leads to the lighting phenomenon.
  • Thus streams of charged particles from the sun mix with Earth's atmosphere. Hence the option A is correct.
