"The atmosphere of the Sun and most of its interior are made mostly of hydrogen and helium. In the atmosphere, helium constitutes 73% of the mass while helium constitutes 25%, leaving only 2% for other elements. For the Sun as a whole (both atmosphere and interior), hydrogen averages at 70.5%, helium at 27.5%, and all other elements at 2%. The Sun is completely in a gaseous phase. The gas, made of the elements mentioned above, is either neutral or ionized depending on the atmospheric parameters at different locations. In an ionized gas, also called 'plasma,' some or all electrons orbiting the nuclei are stripped from the atoms, due either to violent collisions with other atoms or the absorption of light of sufficient energy. The higher the temperature of the gas the more favorable the conditions for the formation of a plasma."

The Chromosphere is the inner atmosphere and the Corona is the outer atmosphere. The photosphere is the surface that we see(with proper filters of course).

The read your book and stop being lazy atmosphere when your teacher tell you that you have to find this question on your own and while she's telling you that your too busy thinking about the new 50 cent album and think about who your going to smoke with today, this atmosphere is also known as dropping out of high school

I'm pretty sure that the sun has no atmosphere because it is all burning gas. you may want to look into the layers of the sun, but I can guarantee you that it doesn't have an "atmosphere" like Earth

Sir:
Dillon has given you the correct answer about the makeup of the Sun's atmosphere. I will not try to retype it here.

It would be the Photosphere.

The Chromosphere is inside the shell of the Sun.
