Prominences and flares on the sun are related to sunspots because they all are caused by eartlths orbit around the sun?

No. Sunspots are related to prominences and flares because they are all caused by imperfections in the Sun's magnetic field. A sun spot is the base of a prominence (they are the same phenomenon) and Solar flares are just enormous prominances. The Earth has no effect whatsoever on the Sun. (Apart from a few very minor technicalities.)

What are reddish loops of gas that connect different parts of sunspots?
Solar Prominences. See related link for more information.
Which is NOT true about sunspots?
They are not related to magnetic fields.
What are the dark spots on the photosphere?
Sunspots. See related question.
What blasts of gas from the sun's atmosphere form enormous loops?
Solar prominences. They are closely related to solar flares.
In relation to the sun what is prominence?
Reference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunspot A sunspot is a region on the Sun's surface (photosphere) that is marked by intense magnetic activity, which inhibits convection, forming areas of reduced surface temperature. They can be visible from Earth without the aid of a telescope. Although they are at temperatures of roughly 4,000-4,500 K, the contrast with the surrounding material at about 5,800 K leaves them clearly visible as dark spots, as the intensity of a heated black body (closely approximated by the photosphere) is a function of T (temperature) to the fourth power. If a sunspot were isolated from the surrounding photosphere it would be brighter than an electric arc.
How are sunspots sun flares and prominences related?
the intense magnetic fields
How are sunspots related to prominence and solar flares?
The sun don't really need sunspots cause sunspots are related to several features on the sun's surface but prominences and solar flares need sunspots.Sunspots are the places where the magnetic field lines of the Sun poke out of the Sun to form loops.Where they poke out they are seens as prominences against the edge of the Sun's visible disk during an eclipse of the Sun.The looped magnetic field lines contain energy and are unstable, When they break and reconnect they release this energy suddenly and cause solar flares.
What are reddish loops of gas that connect different parts of sunspots?
Solar Prominences. See related link for more information.
How are sunspots related to the powerful magnetic field on the sun?
sunspots are caused by the magnetic fields
Which is NOT true about sunspots?
They are not related to magnetic fields.
What are the dark spots on the photosphere?
Sunspots. See related question.
How are prominences solar flares corona solar wind are related to the sun?
sun prominences are like loops that come out of the sun if you look it up you'll probly find pictures. solar flares are like prominences but they dont make a loop they just go straight out. the corona is the outer most layer of the sun.
How many sunspots were there during the year of 1994?
About 50. See related link.
Short-term changes in climate on earth may related to?
sunspots cycle
What blasts of gas from the sun's atmosphere form enormous loops?
Solar prominences. They are closely related to solar flares.
How changes in the number of sunspots is related to changes in global climate?
no one realy knows.
Is sunspots related to the suns magnesium?
All surface artifacts of the sun are caused by magnetism (Magnesium is an element and does not affect much.) These phenomena include sunspots, solar flares, and plasma ejections.
