Lava because pyroclastic material explodes from a volcano, Lava just runs down the surface of the volcano nonexplosive or explosive.

Why the ash from a volcanic eruption can be hazardous?
The pyroclastic material and bits of rock can get into your lungs and cut up your lungs.
What are differences between an eruption column and pyroclastic flow?
An eruption column is a vertical plume of ash and gas produced by a volcanic eruption. A pyroclastic flow a a flow of similar material that moves down the sides of a volcano at great speed.
Define pyroclastic material and list three examples?
Pyroclastic material consists of fragments of rocks that forms during a volcanic eruption. Pyroclastic particles that are less than 2mm in diameter are called Volcanic Ash. Volcanic ash that are less than o.25 mm in diameter is called volcanic Dust. Large Pyroclastic particles that are less than 64 mm in diameter are called Lapilli
Which material is not pyroclastic material?
volcanic dust
What kind of eruption has an pyroclastic flow?
An explosive volcanic eruption. Pyroclastic flow is a mixture of fast flowing hot gases that travel down and away from the eruption.
What is magma and fragments of rock that are ejected into the atmosphere during a violent volcanic eruption?
Pyroclastic Material; I got all the other matching questions and it was the only one left so therefore it is right.
What do you call the fast-travelling stream of hot gas and fragmental material that is produced during an explosive volcanic eruption?
Pyroclastic flow
What are the materials emitted or produced during volcanic eruption?
The materials associated with volcanic eruption are Lava flows such pahoehoe lava and Aa lava. Gases that contain mainly water vapor and carbon dioxide. Pyroclastic materials such fire fragments, ash, dust, pumice, lapilli, cinders, harder lava and hot lava as bombs.
Which could be part of the pyroclastic materials of a volcanic eruption?
Fine ash and dust
What term describes fragmental volcanic material?
Pyroclastic
Which volcanic material would most likely be produced by a violent eruption?
Pyroclastic material would be produced by a violent eruption of a volcano. Pyroclasts are gases in highly viscous magma which expand as they explode pulverized rock up through the vent.
Where does pyroclastic flow occur?
Pyroclastic flows occur during explosive eruptions of volcanoes.
