Is a crater in a volcano a material or part in 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.
A collapsed cave ceiling is called what?
Doline or Shakehole - the names given to the resulting depression if the collapse extends to the surface.Within the cave a collapse is often simply called that - "collapse", the result being a pile of boulders that may fill the passage completely, forming a boulder choke. (also boulder ruckle in the UK at least - possibly cavers' regional dialect.)
What is the result of the moons period of rotation?
how is the crater density used in the relative dating
What kind of volcano is Decca Traps?
The possibility exists that the Decca Traps flood basalts were the result of volcanic activity triggered by a massive impact just off the western coast of India, where a large impact crater called the Shiva Crater has been discovered. This crater's formation seems to coincide in time (68-60mya) with the formation of the Decca Traps.
Where would you find a lunar crater?
YES!!! The adjective 'Lunar' from Latin, means of the Moon.

A depression in the ground due to cave collapse or acidic water dissolution of limestone is called a?
A sinkhole is the term used to describe a depression in the ground caused by a cave collapse. It can also be the result of acidic water dissolving limestone.
When land becomes more desert like as a result of a change in climate or human activity what occurs?
The process is called desertification.
What type of volcano is Amboy Crater in California?
Amboy Crater in California is a cinder cone volcano. It is a relatively small and symmetrical volcano that was formed by explosive eruptions of mostly cinders and scoria. The crater is the result of a single eruptive event that occurred thousands of years ago.
