The name of the crack in the earth's surface above a plate boundary?
valcano valcano valcano valcano
How is a valcano different from a mountain?
A volcano forms where magma is close to the surface of the earth. It can be found where an oceanic plate goes underneath a continental plate, or at a hot spot. A volcano builds up pressure and explodes, sending out hot magma. A mountain is just built by plate tectonics, it does not emit magma.
When is the earh uh?
because the plate moves whitch causes a valcano to eurupt thats what makes the earth fall apart
What information do earthquakes provide about the earth and plate tectonics?
well, when the valcano erupt it makes new land . the mmoving of the tectonics causes the eruption of the volcano.
Where one tectonic plate is pushed under another magma forms and rises toward the surface form where the magma erupts as lava that builds up?
valcano
Where do more active volcuranos ocurr?
Active volcanoes are found on mainly plate margins, with the few examples of hot spots all over the place (e.g. Moana Loa on Hawaii). Volcanoes found at constructive plate margins are more effusive and erupt basaltic lava (e.g. Iceland) and volcanoes found NEAR destructive plate margins are explosive and erupt either andesitic or rhyolitic lava (e.g. Mount Saint Helens-however this volcano might not erupt for quite a while whereas the other two example erupt very frequently).
What plate can Sweden be found on?
what plate is Sweden on
What kinds of volcanoes form on converging plate boundaries?
Composite cone volcanos are the most common.. Shielding and other types are results from a divergent boundary.
What plate is mount Fuji found on?
eurasian plate
What is the name the plate on which the Caribbean is found on?
the Caribbean plate
What is andesitic compstion?
As the Pacific Plate is shoved and crunched under the South American Plate by sea floor spreading, the water-rich sediments of the sea floor are driven deep into the mantle. The metamorphosis from intense heat and pressure results in a class of rocks called andesites as described in previous remarks.
Which crustal plate can be found between nazca plate and south American plate?
Boundary
