No, the earth does not have sun spots. Sun spots are darkened areas on the sun's surface. The best theory is that these are the result of temporary intense magnetic activity inhibiting solar convection.
Earth has mantle convection, so one might think of the continents as being "earth spots" drifting on currents of magma. These combine on break apart over half billion year periods of time known as the "Wilson Cycle."

A change in Earth's total isolation would be caused by?
sunspots
A change in earth total insolation would be caused by?
Sunspots
Climate change on earth is thought to be affected by what solar phenomena?
Sunspots
What are the cool areas on the sun called?
These are called sunspots. These are the cooler darker areas on the sun.They range in size from 800 to 80000 km in diameter. They have very strong magnetic fields that can affect radio communications on earth. They follow an eleven year cycle called the sunspot cycle.
Are the Aurora Borealis on Earth caused by sunspots?
Yes, the auroras begin as sunspots, or solar flares. Charged particles stream out from the sun and collide with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen in the earth's ionosphere. The oxygen and nitrogen give out green, blue and red light, the same way a neon tube works.
How do sunspots are formed?
in the earth
Does the sunspots affect the earth?
The primary affect on the Earth is on our ionosphere
Can sunspots be larger than the earth?
Yes.
The photosphere is about 100 times the diameter of the Earth and large sunspots are larger than your whole planet?
Yes the photosphere is 100 times the diamater of the earth and large sunspots are larger than the Earth.
When sunspots increase what happens on earth?
Nothing Much.
The change in earth's total insolation is caused by?
sunspots
A change in Earth's total isolation would be caused by?
sunspots
What protects us from sunspots?
The Earth's ionosphere and sunblock or sunscreen.
A change in earth total insolation would be caused by?
Sunspots
Is the movement of sunspots caused by the spinning of earth on its axis?
yes
A change in Earth's total insolation would be caused by what?
Sunspots
Climate change on earth is thought to be affected by what solar phenomena?
Sunspots
