What is fluid rock?
lava= material flowing from a volcano
How did maria form?
Basaltic Lava
Would the typemagma mean the Eyjafjallajokull Volcano has high medium or low in viscosity?
And what was the type magma from the eyjafjell volcano? It was BASALTIC and baslatic magma is a LOW viscosity, which means when erupted the lava flows easily on very gentle slopes.
A volcanic mountain with gently sloping sides built almost entirely out of basalt lava flows is called a cinder cone.?
The Answer is false/untrue. A basaltic volcano with gently sloping sides is sometimes refrred to as a 'shield' volcano.
What type of magma forms at mid-ocean ridges?
pillow lava named that because when it cools it looks like pillows.
What kind of lava does Haleakala have?
it has aa lava, so it is not fluid like, but still basaltic.
Does Paricutin have basaltic lava or granitic lava?
Paricutin is a volcano in Michoacán, Mexico. The volcano is a cinder cone volcano. This means that the volcano is made up of layers of ash and stones that erupt out of the earth when the volcano erupts.
What types of volcano rock fragments or lava come out of kilauea volcano?
Kilauea generally produces lava flows and lava fountains. Its current activity has also involved the formation of lava lakes. All of the lava involved is basaltic.
Correct order of decreasing magma viscosity?
The amount of viscosity present in magma depends on the amount of silica it has. A composite volcano produces rhyolitic lava which is very thick. A shield volcano produces a basaltic lava with less silica and significantly less viscosity.
What type of lava does a cinder cone volcano have?
A cinder cone volcano has basaltic lava.
What type of lava comes out of shield volcano?
Basaltic lava.
What type of volcano forms from thin layers of cooled lava?
the Philippines volcano's form thin layer of cooled lava but not really cold like freezing
What type of lava does shield a shield volcano have?
Mafic, more commonly called Basaltic.
What kind of lava forms shield volcanoes?
Shield volcanoes are fed by basaltic magma.
What type of lava comes from what volcano?
Shield volcanoes will erupt basaltic lava. Cinder cones erupt basaltic lava or basaltic andesite lava. Stratovolcanoes often erupt andesite lava, but may erupt basaltic or rhyolitic lava and all intermediate types as well.
Shield volcanoes are almost entirely composed of this kind of very fluid lava?
Of the common types of lava, basaltic lava is the most fluid. However, one volcano, Ol Doinyo Lengai in Africa erupts unique carbonatite lava, which is extremely fluid. This lava appears to be closer in viscosity to water than basaltic lava.
Does Yellowstone volcano have lava tubes?
No. Lava tubes generally form with basaltic lava. The rhyolitic lava that the Yellowstone volcano would produce is to viscous.
