solar wind -- interplanetary magnetic field
solar wind -- interplanetary magnetic field

radiation belt -- aurora
radiation belt -- aurora

coronal mass ejection -- geomagnetic storm
coronal mass ejection -- geomagnetic storm

geomagnetic storm -- aurora

Answer 1

The two correct pairs that describe a realistic cause-effect relationship between solar weather and Earth's magnetosphere are:

1. coronal mass ejection -- geomagnetic storm
2. geomagnetic storm -- aurora

These pairs represent direct relationships where a coronal mass ejection can trigger a geomagnetic storm, and a geomagnetic storm can lead to the occurrence of auroras.
