The Sun

The Sun can be split into two regions:

The interior is a sphere with radius R = 7x108m

The atmosphere lies on top and has the following layers (from innermost to outermost):

The photosphere is about 300 km thick. Most of the Sun's visible light that we see originates from this region.

The chromosphere is about 2000 km thick. We only see this layer and the other outer layers during an eclipse.

The corona extends outwards for more than a solar radius.

The size of the atmosphere compared to the Earth.

Discuss some similarities and differences between the linnaean system of classification and cladistics.
zysi [14]
I think some similarities and differences between the linnaean system of classification and cladistics is that they both rely on characteristics to classify organisms but cladistics are more precise. In Linnean taxonomy, species are grouped according to their appearances, while in cladistics, they are grouped according to the relative closeness of their gentic structure Cladistics is a system for hypothesizing an evolutionary tree and timeline, based on the characteristics shared between different organisms. However, there are some limitations of Linnaean Classification system is that it is based on appearance, DNA classifies more specifically, some may be related genetically but not physically.
