What are sunspots? Pls help

Biology
1 answer:
liq [111]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Sunspots are darker, cooler areas on the surface of the sun in a region called the photosphere.

Explanation:

The photosphere has a temperature of 5,800 degrees Kelvin. Sunspots have temperatures of about 3,800 degrees K. They look dark only in comparison with the brighter and hotter regions of the photosphere around them.

Sunspots can be very large, up to 50,000 kilometers in diameter. They are caused by interactions with the Sun's magnetic field which are not fully understood. But a sunspot is somewhat like the cap on a soda bottle: shake it up, and you can generate a big eruption. Sunspots occur over regions of intense magnetic activity, and when that energy is released, solar flares and big storms called coronal mass ejections erupt from sunspots.

what is the texture and appearance of the potato strips after being immersed in various concentration of sucrose solution​
Alexxx [7]

This process is a technique of osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of solvent particles. For example,  water along its concentration gradient, from high to low concentration, via a semi-permeable membrane is changing the structure of the molecules in the potato strips.  

Since the environment of the potato strips are in a sugar concentrate, the potato will lose its water content and so loses weight and the strips will be thinner and dryer.
