Molten material that flows from volcanoes?
lava.
What Type of Lava usually flows out of oceanic volcanoes?
mafic lava
Which volcanoes are Massive gently sloping volcanoes built of successive basaltic lava flows?
Shield Volcanoes
What type of material makes up volcanoes with broad sloping sides?
Basalt lava forms shield volcanoes which are known for their broadly sloped flanks. This is because there is a low amount of Silica in the volcanic material allowing the magma to flow very freely giving the broad flanks as lava flows out.
Why are Hawaiian volcanoes shield volcanoes?
The Hawaiian volcanoes are shield volcanoes as they are broadly-sloping and composed of layers formed by basaltic lava flows.
Molten material that flows from volcanoes?
lava.
What does lava have to do with volcanoes?
Lava is molten rock that flows out of a volcano.
What is the name of mountain from which the lava flows out?
Volcanoes
What Type of Lava usually flows out of oceanic volcanoes?
mafic lava
How does the types of material that erupt from a volcanoes determine the shape of the volcanoes?
Fluid basaltic lava flows that erupted nonexplosively spread like hot syrup poured onto a plate. Ash flows are from huge MORE
What is a shield volcano built out of?
Shield volcanoes are large volcanoes that are built almost entirely of fluid. Lava flows gently and continuously out of the central volcanic vent or group of vents.
Which volcanoes are Massive gently sloping volcanoes built of successive basaltic lava flows?
Shield Volcanoes
What planet is covered with lava flows and has several volcanoes?
Venus.
What is the lava that flows from volcanoes?
Magma that eventually turns into igneous rock
What type of material makes up volcanoes with broad sloping sides?
Basalt lava forms shield volcanoes which are known for their broadly sloped flanks. This is because there is a low amount of Silica in the volcanic material allowing the magma to flow very freely giving the broad flanks as lava flows out.
Are composite volcanoes predominantly erupting with lava flows?
No. Composite volcanoes erupt mostly ash and pumice.
Why does a cinder cone volcanoes have such steep sides?
when lava flows down it the lava that stayed on it gets hard
