19
Q

What is a Shield Volcano?

A

A wide Gently sloping Mountain made out of layers of lava and ash formed by quiet eruptions

20
Q

What is a Cinder cone

A

A tall steep cone-shaped hill made of ash, cinder and bombs

21
Q

What is a Composite Volcano?

A

A tall cone shaped mountain thats made by layers of lava and ash

22
Q

What is Landforms of Magma?

A

Volcanic Neck, Dike, Sill, Batholith

23
Q

What is a Volcanic Neck

A

Magma hardening in a volcanos Pipe.

24
Q

What is a Dike

A

A slab of rock formed when magma forces itself vertically

25
Q

What is a Sill

A

A slab of rock formed when magma forces itself Horizontally

26
Q

What is a Batholith

A

A mass of rock formed when a large body of magma cools inside the crust.

27
Q

What is Geothermal Activity

A

The Heating Of underground water by magma and and alternative energy source.

28
Q

What is a hot spring?

A

Heated Groundwater rises to the surface and collects in a natural pool.

29
Q

What is a Geyser?

A

A fountain of water and steam that builds up pressure and erupts.

30
Q

What is Ash?

A

Sand sized particles shooting out of a volcano.

31
Q

What is Cinder?

A

Pebble sized volcanic rock that shoots out of volcanos.

32
Q

What Is Bombs

A

Baseball to car sized volcanic rock shot out of a volcano.

33
Q

What Does An Active Volcano Mean?

A

Eruption or may erupt in near future.

34
Q

What Does An Dormant Volcano Mean?

A

“Sleeping’ volcano likely to awaken

35
Q

What Does An Extinct Volcano Mean?

A

Unlikely To erupt again

36
Q

What causes A Quiet Eruption?

A

Magma Flows Easily

Low Silica Content= Low viscosity

37
Q

What causes A Explosive Eruption?

A

If magma is thick and sticky

High Silica = High viscosity
