Which mountain is formed when new material is added to earth's surface?
volcanic
Pillow lava is the result of what type of eruption?
Pillow lava is formed from a relatively low effusion rate. It erupts from either an underwater vent (opening in which gas and other volcanic material can pass) lava flowing into the ocean.
What is a steep-sided volcano formed entirely of ash and cinders?
A steep sided volcanoe formed entirely from ash and cinders is called a composite volcanoe.
Are pyroclastic rocks considered sedimentary?
Sometimes Pyroclastics are rocks formed from the cooling and solidification of material ejected during explosive volcanic eruptions, and are so primarily igneous. However, this material is often transported an redeposited by processes not directly related to volcanism. When this occurs, the resulting material may be considered sedimentary. Rocks that form from this transported volcanic material are called volcaniclastic rocks.
What is a relatively small summit depression on a volcano marking a former eruptive vent?
A relatively small summit depression on a volcano marking a former eruptive vent is called a volcanic crater. It is typically shaped like a bowl or a funnel and is formed during explosive volcanic activity when the magma is ejected from the volcano. Craters can vary in size and can often contain a lake, known as a crater lake, or be filled with volcanic debris.
What is the name of a hill or mountain formed by volcanic activity?
Volcanoe
Which mountain is formed by volcanic material?
A volcanic mountain.
Which mountain is formed when new material is added to earth's surface?
volcanic
What mountains form by molded materials?
Volcanic mountains are formed by molded material
How did the volcanic glass Perlite form?
Perlite is formed when water trapped in volcanic material vaporizes. This expands the material by up to 16 times its size, becoming light and absorbent.
What mountain types is formed from new material that is added to earth's suface?
Volcanic Mountains
What is a palagonite?
A palagonite is a material similar to basalt formed by the action of water on volcanic ash.
Pillow lava is the result of what type of eruption?
Pillow lava is formed from a relatively low effusion rate. It erupts from either an underwater vent (opening in which gas and other volcanic material can pass) lava flowing into the ocean.
What is a steep-sided volcano formed entirely of ash and cinders?
A steep sided volcanoe formed entirely from ash and cinders is called a composite volcanoe.
What is the difference between a lahar and a mudflow?
A lahar is a specific type of mudflow formed primarily of volcanic material.
How were long-active mid-oceanic volcanic islands formed?
Mid-ocean volcanic islands are usually formed due to the location of a 'hot spot' in the Earth's mantle from which molten material continuously is created and flows to the surface.
What force formed these volcanic mountains?
lava formed the volcanic mountains
