Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The Sun is dense, and gives rise to a continuous spectrum, peaked in the color yellow as dictated by the 5800K temperature of its surface. Then the cooler, less dense gas above the surface absorbs some of the energy in transit, revealing its composition by the particular absorption lines we observe from Earth.
