Answer 2

Explanation:

❤WHY STARS TWINKLE? ❤

THE TWINKLING OF STARS IS DUE TO THE ATMOSPHERIC REFRACTION OF THE LIGHT RAYS COMING FROM THEM.

WHEN THE LIGHT RAYS ENTER THE EARTH ATMOSPHERE IT UNDERGOES REFRACTION DUE TO VARY OPTICAL DENSITY OF AIR.

SO YOUR ANSWER IS OPTION C ❤

THE REFRACTIVE INDEX CHANGES OF THE DIFFERENT LAYER
