  1. (1) A scheme of magnetic-field generation in an active region within the subphotospheric convective zone is discussed. Magnetic-field amplification is considered to result from the interaction of the local cyclonic motion and the turbulent motion of the subphotospheric plasma.

  2. (2) A model of the magnetoplasma of an active region is considered consisting of a current-free magnetic field, whose lines of force stretch deeply under the photosphere in the form of subgranules (force-free fine-scale plasma elements). The explanation of some peculiarities in the development of an active region with the considered structure is discussed.

  3. (3) Some peculiarities of the general structure of the magnetic field and the motion within photosphere and chromosphere obtained by the analysis of observations with the IZMIRAN two-channel magnetograph is discussed.
