The quiet solar atmosphere mode is used to construct a theoretical profile of the 1083 nm neutral helium absorption line. A comparison with the observed profile is performed. A line formation mechanism is proposed. It is argued that the line is not the result of a simple imposition of the chromospheric emission line on the photospheric absorption line in accordance with the temperature gradient sign in the chromosphere and the photosphere. It is in the chromosphere that the optical thickness of the line exceeds the optical thickness in the continuum; however, the absorption line itself is formed in the photosphere. Center-to-limb variations of the line are explained qualitatively for different regions. A theoretical explanation is presented for the transition of this line from the center of the solar disk to the edge, with the subsequent transformation of the absorption line into an emission line.
