Answer: b. The temperature at the Earth's center may almost equal the temperature of the Sun's surface.
Explanation:
The Earth's core is very very hot due to various factors such as heat from radioactive materials decaying and the heat the earth had when it was formed. It is estimated that the temperature here is around 5,200° C which means that it can melt even Tungsten.
This is almost equal to the surface temperature of the sun which is around 5,500° C.

If you're an edge it's multiple choice and it would be c
Answer:
The correct answer out of the four given options is
option a. light elements with atomic numbers less than 5
Explanation:
Big Bang nucleosynthesis, abbreviated as BBN, also known as primordial nucleosynthesis took place after the Big Bang for about 10 s to 20 minutes and resulted in the yield of isotopes of helium-4 (
), helium-3 (
) which accounts for most of the world's helium, other isotopes of hydrogen in small amounts like deuterium (D or
) and lithium isotope, lithium-7(
) in small amount.
Apart from these stable nuclei, it also yielded two radio-active isotopes: tritium(
) and beryllium-7(
) which due to their unstability later decayed into (
) and (
).
All of these isotopes are of light elements with atomic number less than 5.
A rock on Earth's surface tends to be weathered more because it is exposed to wind, precipitation, and the effects of gravity. A rock buried underground does not experience weathering from wind, precipitation, or gravity.
