What is it the fiery arms or loops extending from the suns surface called?
The fiery arms or loops extending from the sun's surface are called solar prominences. These are large, bright features that extend outward from the sun's surface, often in a loop shape, and are composed of plasma. Solar prominences are associated with the sun's magnetic field and can last for several hours to days before dissipating.
A dark area of gas on the suns surface that is cooler than surrounding gases?
The dark area is known as a sunspot on the Sun's surface. Sunspots appear darker because they are cooler than their surroundings. They are caused by strong magnetic activity that inhibits convection and reduces temperature.
What are the small dark areas on the suns suface?
Sun spots (magnetic storms).
What are dark spots on the suns surface?
The dark spots on the Sun's surface are called Sunspots. These are formed by the sun's magnetic field because these areas have less convection underneath the sun's surface. Convection is how the sun's energy gets to the surface from the core in a circular motion. This reduces the heat in the area and makes the area appear darker than the surrounding sun. However, these spots are still extremely hot and can be many times the size of Earth!
What is the lowest layer of the suns atmosphere called?
The lowest layer of the Sun's atmosphere is called the photosphere. It is the visible surface of the Sun from which light is emitted, and it has a temperature of about 5,500 degrees Celsius (9,932 degrees Fahrenheit). Above the photosphere lies the chromosphere and then the corona. The photosphere is also where sunspots appear as cooler, darker areas due to magnetic activity.
What are the dark areas on the suns surface?
They are called sun spots, dark areas that are cooler than the rest of the surface.

A flaming shooting out from the surface of the sun is?
This is called a solar prominence when viewed on the suns limb or a solar filament when viewed with the solar disk behind it (when it will appear darker than the disk). Filaments/ prominences are formed in magnetic loops that hold relatively cool, dense gas suspended above the surface of the Sun.
Is the earths magnetic field stronger than the suns?
it's not
Whart are cool spots on the sun?
Sunspots are cooler regions on the surface of the sun. Visually, they look like dark circles sporadically dotting the sun, and their numbers change from day to day.
The name of the suns surface?
Chromosphere
What we know as the suns surface?
photosphere

What is the difference of the earth and the sun's surface?
You can still get free parking on the suns surface.
