Question 13 • Earth and Space Science

Put the steps in the correct order to show how auroras form when solar wind interacts with Earth’s magnetic field.

Solar wind carries charged particles toward Earth → Earth’s magnetic field deflects most particles and guides some toward the poles → particles collide with atmospheric gases → the gases emit light, forming auroras
