Which term is related to the Sun?

• A. Reflect
• B. Refract
• C. Scatter
• D. Solar

Answer: (D)

Understanding how we label things related to the Sun helps here. The word 'solar' is the adjective used for anything connected with the Sun—solar energy, the solar system, solar eclipses—so it directly names the Sun itself. The other terms describe how light behaves in general: reflect means light bouncing off a surface, refract is light bending as it enters a different material, and scatter is light spreading in many directions. While sunlight can undergo these processes, those terms aren’t specifically about the Sun. Since the prompt asks for a word that relates to the Sun, the best choice is solar. (The word comes from Latin solaris, meaning of the Sun.)
