It's actually closer to a big pot of boiling water. These are the tops of connective cells. Hot plasma rises up from the core through the convective layer, reaches the surface and radiates the energy. The plasma cools and falls back down to the core.
Are the cells like the top of a single mega giant nuclear bomb ?
