A bright area on the surface of the sun is called a facula.
The grainy texture on the sun's surface produced by numerous bright markings is called granulation. These granules are the tops of convection cells, where hot plasma rises and cooler plasma sinks in the sun's outer layer.
A cooler area on the sun is called a sunspot
The bright red layer of the sun's surface containing hydrogen gas that can be seen is called the chromosphere. It lies just above the sun's visible surface, the photosphere, and is responsible for the red color seen during solar eclipses.
A dark area on the sun that is cooler than its surrounding area is called a sunspot. Sunspots are temporary phenomena that appear as darker regions on the sun's surface due to magnetic activity.
A cool, dark area on the sun's surface is called a sunspot. Sunspots are areas of reduced temperature that appear dark against the brighter background of the surrounding solar surface because they are regions of concentrated magnetic field flux inhibiting convective flow.
An area on the sun that is cooler is called a sunspot.

They''re called sun-spots. They appear as dark 'spots' on the surface of the Sun. The bright 'arches' are solar flares resulting from the storm's energy.
Those arcs of gas that erupt from the surface of the sun are called solar prominences. They are large, bright, gaseous features that can extend outward from the Sun's surface into the corona. Solar prominences are often associated with solar flares and can be visible during total solar eclipses.

What are the dark patches on the sun's surface called
A partial eclipse doesn't hide all the sun's surface. An annular eclipse leaves a ring shape of bright surface all round. A full eclipse doesn't hide the sun's corona which is still quite bright.
Sunspots are the coolest areas on the surface of the sun
Faculae.
