A volcano is a geologic formation from which molten rocks (lava) and hot gases emerge onto the surface of the planet. Typically a volcano is a mountain from which molten material is emitted. It can also be a simple fissure in Earth's surface, which will over time develop as a mound or mountain (after lava cools down and deposits). A volcano is connected to the magma chamber under the surface of Earth. This chamber has molten rocks which flow out from the volcano. The actual outflow of the lava takes place from one or more openings, known as the vents. There is usually a primary vent and many smaller vents. Lava emerges from the vents and flows outwards. Over time it cools down and deposits, forming other parts of the volcano.

What is the difference between vent and rift?
A vent is an opening through which gases or liquids can pass, such as in a volcano. A rift is a crack or fissure in the ground caused by earth movement or volcanic activity. Essentially, a vent is the opening, while a rift is the crack or fissure itself.
What An opening in the earth crust through which lava hot gases and rock fragments erupt?
Volcano , (volcanic vent).
Is the side vent of a volcano the same as a secondary vent?
No, the side vent of a volcano is typically a secondary vent that allows magma to escape from the volcano. Secondary vents are openings in the volcano's flank that can form during an eruption, allowing magma and gas to be released from a different location than the main vent.
What is the name of the hole at the top of a volcano vent called?

Is vent a volcanoes name?

In a Volcanoe what is a vent?
A volcano's vent is located at the top and usually emits smoke. The vent allows for the escape of pressure in the volcano itself. However when the force becomes too great inside the volcano, the vent will explode raining down debris.
What is the difference between a single vent sports coat and a double vent sports coat?

What is the vent of a volcano called?
The vent of a volcano is called the crater. It is the opening at the top of the volcano through which lava, ash, and gases are expelled during an eruption.
