The depression at the summit of a volcano or that which is produced by a meteorite impact.
The opening of the volcano is called crater. A crater may be large in dimension or deep. This is where the magma erupts.
A crater volcano, also known as a volcanic crater, is a circular depression at the summit of a volcano. It is formed when explosive eruptions blast out material, creating a bowl-shaped cavity. Crater volcanoes can vary in size and depth depending on the volcanic activity that created them.
The summit of a volcano is the highest point of the volcano's peak or crater, where often the main vent or vents are located. It is the topmost part of the volcano that can sometimes be marked by a crater or caldera.
a crater can be formed anywhere in a volcano. its usually formed at the top though.
Taal Volcano in Philippines....
Probably from the earthquake that happened when the crater hit the earth. The lava rushes to the surface, melting the crater, and it forms a volcano.

A crater is not a separate material or part of a volcano. It is a depression or hollow at the summit of a volcano that forms when the volcano erupts and releases magma, gases, and other materials. The crater is a result of the collapse or expulsion of material during the eruption.
Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument was created in 1930.
The opening in the center of a volcano is a crater.
The Oshima volcano crater has a diameter of approximately 700 meters.
