What activity in the magma causes crustal plate movement?
convection currents. Causes the magma to move the earths crust creating plate movement.
What is any movement of magma inside earth?
lava flow
Why can earthquakes signal possible volcanic eruption?
The movement of magma can cause movement in the surrounding rock, resulting in earthquakes.
Is it true when an earthquake occurs when magma travels from the magma chamber through the pipe and out through the vent?
This describes a volcanic eruption. Eruptions can be accompanied by earthquakes, and some earthquakes do occur as a result of the movement of magma. However, most earthquakes, as stated above, result from the movement of tectonic plates.
What happens during a volcano?
The movement of magma through the Earth's crust is known as?
The movement of magma through the Earth's crust is known as intrusion.
What activity in the magma causes crustal plate movement?
convection currents. Causes the magma to move the earths crust creating plate movement.
What is any movement of magma inside earth?
lava flow
What forces are thought to cause plate tectonic movement?
Convection currents (the movement of magma beneath the plates)
Why can earthquakes signal volcanic eruption?
The movement of magma can cause movement in the surrounding rock, resulting in earthquakes.
What causes small earthquakes before a volcanic eruption?
The earthquakes are caused by the movement of magma underground and the breaking of rocks by that magma.
What will happen if S waves encounter magma or molten rocks?
S waves will not pass through magma.
What processes power the movement of the earth's continental and oceanic plates?
the magma
Why can earthquakes signal possible volcanic eruption?
The movement of magma can cause movement in the surrounding rock, resulting in earthquakes.
How are moutains made?
movement of tectonic plates or magma rising under ground

Any activity that icludes the movement of magma on to the earth's surface?
This is known as a volcanic eruption.
