Answer:

i) Stars appear to be twinkling due to atmospheric refraction.

ii) Star light reaches the surface of the Earth through many layers of the Atmosphere.

iii) These Layers have different optical densities due to different refractive index values to the morning light.

iv) So the light bends many times giving the different apparent positions of the Star which we see twinkling.
