Answer:dark; cooler.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, let us fill in the gap;

' Sunspots are DARKER and COOLER than the gases surrounding them''.

SUNSPOTS are temporary spots on the sun and they are about 200 on the sun at a time. Sunspots do occur on the photosphere region. They are caused by the sun's magnetic field. Sunspots are the irregular shape on the sun's surface.

The sunspots was first observed in the year 1610 by Thomas Harriot. Followed by Jesuit Christoph and Galileo in the year 1611. They were able to observe the sunspots through their studies conducted on sun and their instrument-telescope..

When one compare the surface of the sunspots with other surface of the sun, one will see that sunspots are cooler, it is known that the temperature of a sunspot is 4780°K.
