The Sun is the star at the center of the solar system. It is extraordinarily important for Earth because life could not exist without its light and heat. However, the Sun is actually a fairly ordinary star based on its properties. Its size, temperature, brightness, and age are about average compared to those of other stars in the universe.
Which of the following are true about the Sun? Select all that apply.
