Which layer of the earth produces lava and molten rock?
The mantle is the source of molten rock. This molten material can, if the tectonics are right, penetrate up through the solid outer mantle and the crust to deliver lava, which is molten rock (magma) that has reached the surface of the earth.
What layer of the Earth is made of solid rock and squish molten rock?
the crust is made up of solid rock and mantle is made up of molten rocks
What is the earth made up of molten rock or magma?
Molten rock IS magma. Unless you are talking about lava, which is magma without its gaseous content. But lava is not molten for long.
What structures are created at a divergent plate boundaries?
molten rock bubbles up through the ridge to form new land
What is a hot molten liquid that rises up through a volcano?
The hot molten liquid that rises up through a volcano is called magma. It is a mixture of molten rock, gases, and other substances that is stored beneath the Earth's surface. When a volcano erupts, the magma is expelled as lava onto the Earth's surface.
What could rise up through the gaps between the plates?
molten rock or magma
When rock heats up and becomes molten rock does it sink closer to the core?
No, molten rock is less dense than solid rock and rises through the crust.

How can ingneous rock disturb sedimentary rock layers?
Molten Rock from with in earth can force its way up through the layers above it cooling and forming igneous rock.
What layer of the Earth is made of solid rock and squish molten rock?
the crust is made up of solid rock and mantle is made up of molten rocks
Can you come up with a sentence with the word igneous rock in it?
The igneous rock is formed when a rock that is solidified from molten or partly molten matierial.

What does a igneous rock end up as?
Molten lava.
Why does hot molten rock rise up when superhot?
Density is the key. Think of a hot air balloon. Because hot air is less dense than cool air it rises above it, causeing the air balloon to rise. In science, materials that are a hotter temperature are less dense than materials that are cooler in temperature. The molten rock being hotter is less dense and rises about the cool, solid rock.
How are elements and magma related?
Magma is made molten rock. Rock is made up of elements.
