What is the name of opening in the earths crust where hot melted rocks from inside the earth come to the surface?
The opening in the Earth's crust where hot melted rocks from inside the Earth come to the surface is known as a volcano. When pressure builds up beneath the Earth's surface, it can lead to volcanic eruptions, where magma, ash, and gases are expelled. Volcanoes can vary in size and activity levels, with some being constantly active while others remain dormant for long periods.
What are the rocks that come out of volcanoes called?
The rocks that come out of volcanoes are called volcanic rocks. These rocks are formed from lava that has cooled and solidified either within the volcano or on the Earth's surface. Examples include basalt, andesite, and rhyolite.

Scientists divide rocks into groups based on what?
Rocks are grouped by how they are formed. There are 3 types of rocks. Sedimentary, Metamorphic, and Igneous rock. Sedimentary rocks are made from broken down rocks, called sediment, which come from all three rocks. Metamorphic rocks come from existing rocks that are changed by heat and pressure. The Igneous rocks are formed from magma that rose up to the surface, also known as lava. When the lava cools and hardens it forms igneous rocks. That is a rock cycle.
