Sunspot maximum and sunspot minimum are the points in time (roughly 6 years apart) when the sun is producing the most, or the least sunspots. In the past this has been measured both by sunspot area and sunspot count and is directly tied to the solar magnetic cycle.
This question makes no sense. It's like asking "what is an example of a pencil?" A pencil is a pencil, and a sunspot is a sunspot.
The sunspot cycle is about 11 years in length.
No they do not. S sunspot is basically a magnetic storm on the the Sun's Photosphere.
You should never look directly at the Sun to try to see a sunspot, as they are not as dark as they look in photographs. The magnetic disturbance that causes a sunspot will seldom occur in the same location twice.

A Large Sunspot can be up to about 10,000 miles across.
No they do not. S sunspot is basically a magnetic storm on the the Sun's Photosphere.
An area on the sun that is cooler is called a sunspot.
A sunspot is a part of the Sun that is cooler, and therefore darker, than the surroundings.
No
The Sun is rising close to its high, or peak sunspot cycle.
On July 14, 2007, the Sunspot number was 38. This was late in Solar Cycle 23. You can see the daily sunspot number and interesting astronomical phenomena at spaceweather.com.
