What is a hardened layer of magma called?
A hardened layer of magma is called a lava flow or volcanic rock.
What is the term for the flow of magma through cracks in the earth's surface?
The term for the flow of magma through cracks in the Earth's surface is called volcanic eruption. During an eruption, magma is forced through fissures or vents onto the surface, leading to the formation of volcanic features like lava flows, ash clouds, and pyroclastic flows.
Magma that has reached the surface is called what?
Lava.lavaThis is known as lava.
When the magma flows down the side of the volcano what is it called?
Actually, the molten rock is called lava. The magma from the magma chamber shoots up the main vent and when the magma reaches the vent, it will turn into lava. After that.. I don't have any idea..
This type of magma is thick moves slowly and does not flow well?
The type of magma you are referring to is called viscous magma. It is rich in silica and other minerals, making it thick and sticky. As a result, it does not flow easily and tends to form domes or plugs when it erupts.
How does magma flow?
out of the toilet
How do magma flow?
Viscously.
What is the solid magma core of a volcano called?
Magma is underground, when it reaches the surface it becomes lava. So solidified magma is really lava. The lava flow is the liquid lava as it goes down the mountain, when hard its just hardened lava.

Magma may flow or it can?
Magma always flows.
How can mantle flow because its made of hot liquid magma?
Magma in the mantle moves in a current called a convection current. A convection current is a circular flow of a substance in which a hot substance rises, cools, sinks, gets hot again, and repeats. In this way, magma in the mantle flows in currents of more hot or more cool magma.
Magma reaches the earths surface as a result of the process called?
Magma reaches the Earth's surface through a process called volcanic eruption. This occurs when pressure builds up underground and forces the magma to flow and eventually break through the Earth's surface. Once the magma reaches the surface, it is then called lava.
What is the Flow of magma through the earths surface called?
I believe the answer you may be looking for is either Lava or a Volcano
