Volcanoes form when geologic plates shift and crack against each other. When the gaps fill with molten earth, the volcano really starts to form.

What happens at a hotspot?
Hotspots are locations that are prone to volcanic activity.
What happens to the volcanic ash after it settles?
It hardens and turns into rocks.
What happens when two pieces of continental crust run into each other?
... a mountain range like the Himalayas is formed.
What happens to a mountain root as the mountain is eroded?
it may come to the surface or possibly disperse
What happens before a volcanic eruption?
magma falls from underground to form an opening in the volcano
What happens at a hotspot?
Hotspots are locations that are prone to volcanic activity.
What happens when plate tectonics move up or down?
When plate tectonics move up or down, it is referred to as vertical movement or vertical displacement. Upward movement can occur due to processes like uplift and volcanic activity, leading to the formation of mountains and volcanic landforms. Downward movement, on the other hand, can result in subduction zones where one tectonic plate is forced beneath another, causing the formation of trenches and sometimes leading to earthquakes and volcanic activity.
What happens when a volcanic eruption happens?
people die
What happens to the atmosphere after large scale volcanic eruptions?
What happens to the atmosphere when they erupt?
What happens to the magma that leads to volcanic eruption?
blast
What happens during sudbuction?
During subduction, one tectonic plate is forced beneath another plate into the Earth's mantle. This typically occurs at convergent plate boundaries where two plates collide. As the subducting plate sinks into the mantle, it can cause various geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges.
What happens to the volcanic ash after it settles?
It hardens and turns into rocks.
What happens to people at the foot of a volcanic eruption?
They will probably die
What happens first in pregnancy?
Formation of a zygote
What happens when two pieces of continental crust run into each other?
... a mountain range like the Himalayas is formed.
Noun for volcanic?
A volcano is a vent (opening) in the earths crust through which molten materials erupts suddenly.
What happens to electrons during ion formation?
nothing
