How are volcanoes important in the formation of rocks?
Because the lava from volcanoes form igneous rocks
What types of rocks are found in volcanoes?
igneous rocks,sedimentary rocks, and metamorphic rocks.
What is the Plural possessive form of the word volcanoes?
The plural possessive form of "volcanoes" is "volcanoes'".
Are plutonic rocks igneous rocks that hardened on top of volcanoes?
No. Plutonic rocks are igneous rocks that hardened underground. Rocks that form on volcanoes are volcanic rocks.
What type of rocks are formed in volcanoes?
Volcanoes can produce different types of rocks, including igneous rocks like basalt, andesite, and rhyolite. These rocks are formed from magma that cools and solidifies either within the volcano (intrusive) or on the surface (extrusive) through processes like volcanic eruptions.
Which is a site where igneous rocks form?
volcanoes
How does volcanoes form new rocks?
when the lava runs out of the volcano it forms new rocks
What types of volcanoes form at mid-ocean ridges?
Rift volcanoes.
Can igneous rocks form inside and outside of volcanoes?
yes
Do all volcanoes have kimberlite?
No, not all volcanoes have kimberlite. Kimberlite is a type of volcanic rock that often contains diamonds, but it is only found in specific geological settings. Other types of volcanoes can be composed of different types of magma and erupt different types of rocks.
What are types of rocks formed by volcanoes?
Three different types of volcanoes are 1) Shield volcanoes; they are large mountains with gentle slopes. 2) Cinder cones volcanoes; they are small volcanoes made of hardened lava chunks called cinders. And the last one is 3) composite volcanoes; they are medium sized mountains made up of layers of lava that alternates with cinders. That is it.
What types of rocks are near active volcanoes and why?
When lava cools, it forms what is known as an extrusive igneous rock. Volcanoes are also associated with alteration from heat and fluids. Therefore you would expect to find extrusive rocks as well as altered rocks.
