Answer;
Sunspots
Explanation;
Sunspots are areas on the surface of the sun that occurs in pairs since each is one side of a loop of the sun's magnetic field which reaches the surface of the sun.
Sunspots are cooler and darker than the rest of the Sun's surface and are marked by intense magnetic activity.
Sunspot are created by the strong, dense magnetic fields that are generated by circulating plasma which become entangled and surge through the photosphere.
