Detailed explanation-1: -In convection, hot gases rise through cooler gases as they travel to the top of the convective zone. Once they reach the top of the convective zone, they cool. What happens to these gases next? They create sunspots.
Detailed explanation-2: -The convection zone is the outermost layer of the sun’s interior. Hot gases rise from the bottom of the convection zone and gradually cool as they approach the top. Cooler gases sink, forming loops of gas that move heat toward the sun’s surface.
Detailed explanation-3: -A convection zone, convective zone or convective region of a star is a layer which is unstable due to convection. Energy is primarily or partially transported by convection in such a region. In a radiation zone, energy is transported by radiation and conduction.
