We check whether the currents of inhomogeneities (diffusion, thermodiffusion, and gradient ones) can exist at the photospheric level. For this purpose, the vertical currents are compared with the theoretically estimated currents of inhomogeneities; our comparison shows them to be of the same order of magnitude. Therefore, the currents of inhomogeneities actually exist in the solar photosphere; their exact values are determined by the (electron density, temperature, and magnetic field) gradients, which are not known very well at present. This paper continues the current tendency in describing the atmospheric magnetic field (in particular, its fine structure) that consists in allowing for the Hall, diffusion, and thermodiffusion currents.
