magma is basiclly lava but it is called lava when its under ground and then called lava when its above ground the convection currents in the mantle ( soft rock part of earth under crust) causes the magma to rise and come out of the gas vent which is also known as crater the opening at the top of tge volcano
What else can I help you with?
What are the types of vents?
Magma or lava vents and gas vents. Also fumarole.
Types of volcanic vents?
Types of volcanic vents include central vent, fissure vent, and parasitic vent. Central vents are the main opening from which lava and gases are expelled. Fissure vents are elongated fractures in the Earth's crust from which lava can erupt. Parasitic vents are smaller secondary openings located near the central vent through which additional lava may be emitted.
How magma inside a volcano becomes a lava flow outside?
The magma gushes out and then it flows every where. The volcano has vents that let air come out. When the vents open steam/ smoke comes out of those vents.
What are the vents in a volcano?
Vents in the volcano are passage ways for the magma, steam, and heat to escape the earth.
What are volcanic vents and side vents?
a volcanic vent is a channel way or opening through which magma ascends to the surface
Does Mt Erebus have secondary vents?
Yes, Mt. Erebus in Antarctica has secondary vents located on its flanks, which are openings in the volcano's surface through which magma, gas, and volcanic ash can erupt. These secondary vents can release pressure from the main crater and contribute to the overall volcanic activity of the mountain.
What forces pushes magma out of a volcano into the surface during a volcano?
it is side vents
What are two type of volcanic vents?
magma or lava dried after a volcanic eruption.
What is the cause of the Kilauea eruption?
heat and pressure pushed magma out of the side vents making it ooze out and also magma shoots out of the crater.
What is a magma vent and how is it different from a gas vent?
A gas vent would be above the level of a liquid; it would allow gas to escape as the liquid rises or air to be drawn in as the liquid lowers in attempt to equalize gas and atmospheric pressure. A vent located below the liquid line would allow the liquid to escape as the liquid level in the enclosed area rises.
How does magma inside a volcano become a lava flow outside?
Magma inside a volcano can become a lava flow outside when pressure builds up inside the volcano, causing the magma to erupt through the volcano's vent or fissures. As the magma reaches the Earth's surface, it is then referred to as lava. Once outside the volcano, the lava can flow downhill and solidify to form igneous rock.
How does magma rise to the surface of the Earth?
Through cracks, holes or vents in the earths crust.
