Sunspots are cooler than the surrounding gas in the photosphere because Sunspots are cooler than the surrounding gas in the phot
inna [77]

Answer:

The presence of strong magnetic fields results in the slow convection and also prevents the movement of hot plasma from entering the region

Explanation:

The photosphere refers to the visible surface of the sun, whereas the sunspots are the small dark spots that occur on the surface of the sun. These sunspots are comparatively cooler than the other gases that are present in the photosphere. It is because of the presence of the strong magnetic field, that lowers the surface temperature and reduces the effects of convection process and does not allow the movement of hot plasma into the region.

Due to this obstruction in the release of heat in the sun's surface, the sunspots are cooler than the surrounding gases.

What are landforms that can cause an earthquake
lozanna [386]

<span>1959-1961 </span>
<span>The famine triggered by the "Great Leap Forward" was one of the largest man-made disasters in human history. Estimates of the number of casualties vary greatly and are difficult, if not impossible, to verify. Conservative estimates assume that from 1958 to 1961, over 14 million people died of starvation, and the number of reported births was about 23 million fewer than under normal conditions. Other authors have estimated the number of famine-related death of up to 30 million or higher
