Answer to Question 1

The convective cells rise upward through the convective zone to erupt in the photosphere as the granulation pattern, where the cells radiate away light and cool off and break up in just a few minutes.

Answer to Question 2

The gamma rays from the core can freely move through this hot, ionized layer which does not absorb this form of radiation.
