What is molten material below the surface of earth called?
Molten rock material below the earth's surface is called magma.lava
What is the surface composition of the inner planets?
The surface composition is made of rock and ice.
Which rocky planet has a surface that changes constantly?
There are two terrestrial planets in the solar system with ever-changing surfaces: Mars, which constantly undergoes minor changes due to sandstorms, and Venus, the surface of which is molten.
What is inside of all of the planets?
Different for each planet. Earth has a core of molten iron and rock. The Moon appears to be solid to the core, having cooled a long time ago. Venus is probably still molten at the core; heck the SURFACE is nearly molten. Mars is smaller and further away, so may have a small molten core or may be solid iron and rock. The gas giant planets may have small rocky cores, or may be gasses compressed to metallic solids by the immense pressure. We will have to do more studies to find out.
How is a dome mountain formed?
Dome mountains are created when hot molten material is pushed upward over the sedimentary rock layers, forming a dome shape. The magma does not reach the surface as with a volcano.
What did chemist learn about the mons surface by analyzing moon rocks?
The rocks were similar to rocks formed by volcanoes on Earth, suggesting that vast oceans of molten lava once covered the moon's surface.
The earth's surface is what on molten rock?
Molten rock on the Earth's surface is called lava.
What is the molten material found on the earth's surface?
The molten material that reaches earth's surface is lava :)
The Molten rock below the earth's surface are?
molten rock below the surface is called magma
What molten rock is under the surface?
Magma is molten rock under the surface.
What are molten substances that appear at the surface of earth?
The molten substances that appear at the surface of the earth is magma or lava
What did chemist learn about the moon surface by analyzing moon rocks?
The rocks were similar to rocks formed by volcanoes on Earth, suggesting that vast oceans of molten lava once covered the moon's surface.
What is the molten rock found beneath the surface of the earth?
Molten rock beneath the earth's surface is called magma.
What is molten material below the surface of earth called?
Molten rock material below the earth's surface is called magma.lava
What is the process whereby molten material reaches the earth's surface?
Magma reaches the earth surface during an eruption. Once the magma is on the surface it is called lava.
Does magma cool above ground or beneath?
No. Molten rock under the surface is called magma. Molten rock above the surface is referred to as lava.
What is molten rock at the surface?
lava
