Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Alone of all the products of the proton-proton cycle, only the neutrino can easily escape the Sun and reach the Earth at almost the speed of light. The flux of neutrinos should be in agreement with the observed solar constant, if our model of solar energy production is correct.
