The two main types of magma are mafic and felsic.

What are the two types of magma and what makes them different?
I'm not sure... but the two different types of lava are: Viscous - sticky and slow moving, resulting in tall volcanoes Non Viscous - runny and fast moving, resulting in short and very spread out volcanoes (shield volcanoes)
What are two types of magma?
The three types of magma are basalt, andesite, and rhyolite. Basalt is flowing and is usually around 1,200 degrees Celsius. Andesite is flowing and explosive and is usually between 800 to 1,000 degrees C. Rhyloite is very explosive and is usually at 750 to 850 degrees Celsius.
The types of magma?
Felsic, intermediate, mafic and ultra mafic are the four broad types of magma.
How many types of magma are there?
their are many types of magma because when a volcano has soft magma that means it either exploded small or the magma was going really slow and fast magma and big exploding volcano's are hard magma.:)
Why can different types of igneous rock form?
Because there are different types of magma and different pathways for that magma to cool.
How is magma classified?
Magma is classified based on its silica content, which determines its viscosity and behavior. Magma is typically classified into four main types: basaltic, andesitic, rhyolitic, and dacitic, based on their silica content and mineral composition. These classifications help geologists understand the types of volcanoes and eruptions that can occur.
WHAT ARE THE THREE TYPES OF MAGMA AND THE DIFFERENCES?
The three types of magma are basaltic, andesitic, and rhyolitic. They differ in their silica content, viscosity, and eruptive behavior. Basaltic magma has low silica content, low viscosity, and tends to erupt quietly, while rhyolitic magma has high silica content, high viscosity, and tends to erupt explosively. Andesitic magma falls in between these two in terms of composition and behavior.
What list places the magma What list places the magma types in order of decreasing?
basaltic,andesitic,rhyolitic
What two types of igneous rock are formed as magma or lava cools?
The two types of igneous rock are extrusive, those formed from molten material at or on the surface; and intrusive, those that solidify from molten material below ground.
What three types of rocks can melt to form magma?
All types of rock can melt. Thus potentially ALL types of rocks can form a magma. Your question - asking for 3 types, is therefore meaningless.
Which type of rock forms from magma?
magma is a mixture of several different types of rock.
