What else can I help you with?
What can make new land forms when lava hardens?
Volcanoes
How do volcanoes shape the Pacific Northwest?
volcanoes will erupt and let out lava then the lava will harden and that will be new land.
What do volcanoes create?
Volcanoes create land by when they erupt the lava melts and turns into gravel and then forms the lands.
Why do volcanoes make lava?
to make land
What forms when volcanoes erupts and the lava cools?
the lave cools and forms igneous rock
What kind of volcano forms from lava that is higher in water and silica content than lava that forms shield volcanoes?
cinder cone
What forms from lava that is higher in water and silica content than lava that forms shield volcanoes?
Lava that is higher in water and silica content tends to be more viscous and can lead to explosive eruptions. This type of lava forms stratovolcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes, which are characterized by steep slopes and alternating layers of lava flows, ash, and volcanic rocks. Examples include Mount St. Helens and Mount Fuji.
How do volcanoes affect the production of land masses?
Volcanoes can contribute to the production of new land masses through the accumulation of lava and volcanic debris. As lava cools and solidifies, it forms new rocks and land formations. Over time, repeated volcanic activity can lead to the creation of new islands or expand existing land masses.
Does the lava that forms shield volcanoes probably have a lot of silica or water in it?
No. Shield volcanoes form from basaltic lava with a low silica content and a low water content.
What builds volcanoes?
When lava goes threw crust it forms a hotspot (valcano)
Where does new rock form on the floor?
Forms by lava from volcanoes on the sea floor
How do active volcanoes located on islands create more land area on these islands?
Active volcanoes on islands create more land area through the deposition of lava, ash, and other volcanic materials. When volcanoes erupt, the flowing lava solidifies and cools, forming new land masses on the island. Over time, repeated eruptions can contribute to the growth and expansion of the island.
