How do volcanic features on Venus and mars compared to volcanic features on earth?
Like Earth, Venus has volcanic mountains and other features that are probably made of thin, runny lava, on Venus the volcanos sometimes spew out sulfur into the atmosphere, although there is no proof Venus is volcanically active, scientists believe it most likely is. On Mars there are large shields of volcanoes similar to those on Venus and Earth,as well as cone-shaped volcanoes and lava flows, some of these volcaoes are significantly bigger than Earth's volcanoes, such as Olympus Mons, which is 3 times the size of Mount Everest, but none of these are volcanically active.
Is Venus made of rock?
Yes, Venus is primarily composed of rock. Its composition is mainly made up of silicate rocks similar to those found on Earth. Venus's surface is covered in volcanic plains, mountains, and other rocky features.
What three types of volcanic features have been found on worlds other than Earth?
Volcanic features found on worlds other than Earth include shield volcanoes (e.g. Olympus Mons on Mars), lava flows (e.g. on Jupiter's moon Io), and volcanic calderas (e.g. on Venus). Each of these features provides insights into the volcanic activity and geological processes unique to those worlds.
Gravity on Venus's compard with earth is?
The gravity on Venus is very similar to the gravity on Earth. The density of Venus is also very similar to Earth's.
Does volcanic activity on venus and mars resemble volcanic activity on earth?
Presumably.
Does Venus have any cracks?
Venus does not have tectonic plates like Earth, so it does not have crustal plates that can move and create cracks or faults like we have on Earth. However, Venus does have many volcanoes, volcanic plains, and other volcanic features that can form due to internal processes and not necessarily due to tectonic activity.
Are there highlands on Venus?
Yes, Venus has highlands, but they are not as prominent as those on Earth. The planet is dominated by smooth plains and volcanic features, with some elevated regions scattered across its surface. The highest point on Venus is called Maxwell Montes, which is about 11 km (7 miles) above the average surface elevation.
Is earth the most volcanic planet?
no, the most volcanic planet in the solar system is venus
Two planets with similar mass and size are?
Venus and Earth are similar in size and density. Venus is only a little smaller and lighter, and both have similar gravity. This is why Venus is sometimes called 'Earth's Twin.' However, Venus has an atmosphere 100 times thicker than Earth and surface temperatures that are extremely hot. Venus has no life or water as Earth does.
Which terrestrial planets have had volcanic activity at some point in their histories?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars have all had volcanic activity at some point in their histories. Volcanic features such as lava flows, volcanic mountains, and calderas can be found on these terrestrial planets, indicating their volcanic past.
Why does venus have so many volcanoes?
Venus has more volcanoes than any other planet in the solar system earth occupies. Good evidence suggests it somehow managed to completely invert its crust, resulting in massive quantities of volcanic features.
How is earth the same as venus?
Earth and Venus are similar in size, density, and overall composition.
