The correct statement about the sun's rotation is: The gases at the sun’s poles rotate more quickly than the gases at the equator.
This phenomenon is known as differential rotation, where different parts of the sun rotate at different rates. The poles rotate approximately every 34 days, while the equator takes about 24-25 days for one complete rotation.
The sun does not rotate uniformly, with parts at various latitudes having different rotational periods.
