The convection zone, because it shows how energy moves in a convection current

The sun can be divided into 3 major layers;

  1. The core
  2. Radiative zone
  3. Convection zone

Explanation:

The sun is a large sphere with diameter of approximately 1,391,000 km, about 109 times that of the earth. The core of the sun is where the fusion occurs that releases the enormous amount of energy. The core is therefore hotter than the outer shells (with exception of the corona that is hotter than the earth's surface). The convective zone is where the sun churns due to convection currents. The cooler matter on the surface always sinks towards the core, as the hotter matter from below rises to the surface. This is akin to the convection currents in the mantle of the earth.

cricket20 [7]
The following are the four essential zones in earth's interior: 
1. Crust- is the peripheral strong shell of a rough planet or normal satellite, which is artificially unmistakable from the basic mantle. 
2. Mantle - is a silicate rough shell with a normal thickness of 2,886 kilometers (1,793 mi). The mantle makes up around 84% of Earth's volume. 
3. outer core - Its external limit lies 2,890 km (1,800 mi) underneath Earth's surface. 
4.inner core - is the Earth's deepest part and as per seismological reviews, it has been accepted to be essentially a strong ball with a span of around 1,220 kilometers (760 miles), which is around 70% of the Moon's range.
