The answer to the blank is sunspots.
However, the actual sunspot cycle is 11 years. Every 11 years the sun's magnetic field switches north pole to south pole. So every 22 years is considered a complete cycle. This affects the sunspots because the sunspots are caused by magnetic disturbances. The complete cycle is better explained by diagrams in the websites below.

Sunspots are not in the corona they are in the photosphere, and the magnetic field does affect the photosphere. If you are truly looking for activity in the corona which increases with the solar cycle use coronal mass ejections.

i think what you meant is gravity. Why do the planets would not crash to the sunlight? because of the fact we orbits. the finished momentum made us rotates around the sunlight relatively of falling to it. there are various products that falls into the sunlight, maximum of them are comets, small asteroids, etc. The magnetic container of the sunlight is so intense sure, it creates an consequence noted as the image voltaic wind. in fact this magnetic container is going all a thank you to previous the orbit of Sedna, and all those undiscovered our bodies available. those debris are waiting to flee the sunlight's gravity, partly because of intense temperature of the corona, yet additionally because of the fact of intense kinetic potential that debris benefit by using a technique that's no longer nicely-understood.
