What else can I help you with?
What is the cavity where magma is stored under a volcano called?
This is called the magma chamber.
A chamber underground containing magma?
A magma chamber.
What temperature is required for volcanic eruption?
There is no temperature requirement for volcanic eruptions, the temperature of different typs of magma varies greatly and all of them are capable of producing eruptions. The important thing for eruptions is the pressure within a magma chamber, once the pressure within the chamber exceeds the pressure that is holding the magma inside it will erupt onto the suface.
Where is the magma in a volcano?
In a magma chamber
How does the magma chamber work?
Magma Chamber: underground pocket of molten rock

Is there any effect on volcanic eruption by earthquakes?
earthquakes pressurize the main magma chamber in a volcano by the earth crust. as a result the magma comes out of the volcano
Whats a pool of magma called?
Magma is melted rock, which comes from the Earth's mantle, which is the layer immediately below the crust.
How does magma chamber differ from a vent?
A Magma Chamber is a space (that can change size) at a depth below a volcano in which magma can accumulate prior to an eruption. A volcanic vent is a conduit connecting the magma chamber to the surface. It is though this that the magma flows during an eruption.
What is the difference between magma and magma chamber?
Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface, while a magma chamber is a reservoir where magma is stored before it rises to the surface as lava. Essentially, magma is the molten rock itself, while a magma chamber is the space within the Earth where magma is stored.
Where is magma collected below a volcano?
a magma chamber
What is a word that means a weak spot in the crust where magma comes to the surface?
In the crust the weak spot we have is the Magma Chamber. But, deep down to the mantle such weak zone is the Asthenosphere.
