Answer 2

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The core of the Earth is composed of molten metals mostly iron and nickel.  These molten metals are in continuous motion. Thus, generating a very strong current convectional current. This in turn produces magnetic field around Earth. These convectional currents are caused due to heat escaping the earth's core. This magnetic field acts as a barrier against solar wind trying enter the earth's atmosphere.
