Answer to Question 1

The surface of the Sun is highly mottled or granulated. Each granule is about 1,000 km across. The granulation is produced by the convection (boiling) of the Sun's gases. Each granule is the top of a convection cell that is welling up.

Answer to Question 2

They are regions within the asteroid belt where resonances with Jupiter, particularly at the 2:1 region, have cleared asteroids from that period and distance.
