This is most likely to do with undersea volcanoes. When they erupt they spew out loads of red hot lava which cools extremely quickly due to being at the bottom of the ocean. This quick cooling creates large crystals (as opposed to small crystals when slowly cooled, I think) and a very porous rock. This rock (bear in mind the lava will usually have stuck together) floats to the surface. Time passes and more eruptions add to the rock building up on the surface, slowly creating a rock large enough to support weight. The exposed rock weathers to create a soil very rich in nutrients which enables plants to easily start growing. The plants further erode to rock creating even more soil, which in turn allows for more plant species to grow. Over time an island will form when once there was nothing there but water.

What should you do if your lava lamp wax is frozen?
buy a new onee :) :) that happened to my one :( xx.
What is the problem of lava lamp?
The problem of a lava lamp typically refers to its reliance on heat to create the characteristic motion of the wax inside. If the lamp is not heated adequately, the wax won't melt or rise, resulting in no movement. Additionally, if overheated, the wax can become damaged or the lamp can pose a safety risk. Proper maintenance and usage are essential to ensure the lava lamp functions correctly.
What is an example of primary succesion?
A volcano erupts and sends lava spewing down its sides creating land as it falls into a lake and hardens. And then, a small plant spore drifts by in the wind and lands in the destroyed land. This spore, given only water and sunlight will grow into small plants, like mosses and lichens. Slowly, as life accumulates over centuries other organisms invade the land. Primary succession occurs on a newly exposed land or rock, like hardened lava, on which new life forms. A secondary succession (for your curiosity) involves the same process as primary succession, but it involves an ecological growth on an area of land where life exists no more, but where life has existed.
What are some Lava lamp questions for science projects?
why does the lava sink or rise?
What is the importance of new ideas?
The importance of new ideas are to create new jobs and opportunities for those without them. Many people have tried to create new inventions to make the world a better place.
What does constructive forces means?
It is when forces create new things like lava hardening creating new land destructive destroy things hence the name like an earthquake or tornado.
What did kilauea create?
Kilauea is a volcano located in Hawaii that has created new land as lava flows into the ocean, forming new coastline. It has also produced lava lakes, lava tubes, and lava fountains during its eruptions. Its volcanic activity has influenced the formation of unique landscapes on the island of Hawaii.
What good can lava do?
lava when hits the sea water created new land,
How do active volcanoes located on islands create more land area on these islands?
Active volcanoes on islands create more land area through the deposition of lava, ash, and other volcanic materials. When volcanoes erupt, the flowing lava solidifies and cools, forming new land masses on the island. Over time, repeated eruptions can contribute to the growth and expansion of the island.
What can make new land forms when lava hardens?
Volcanoes
How do volcanoes shape the Pacific Northwest?
volcanoes will erupt and let out lava then the lava will harden and that will be new land.
How is Kilauea affecting the land its on?
The lava flows from the volcano are resurfacing the area and creating new land.
What is the wide and flat land form that repeated flows of lava form called?
The wide and flat land form that repeated flows of lava form is called a lava plateau. Lava plateaus are created by successive eruptions of low-viscosity lava that spreads out in thin layers, building up over time to create a broad, flat area.
How do volcanoes help build up new land?
Volcanoes help create new land because after they erupt the lava (called magma when still inside the volcano) begins to solidify at the bottom and turns into land. ex: Hawaii: the island started out as an under water volcano (caused by sea floor spreading) and after eruptions it began to build up until it peaked out of the ocean. It kept building up until it formed a large land mass.
How does a volcano create land?
The liquid lava comes out of the volcano, solidifies, builds up, and becomes land over a long period of time.
Is Hawaii shrinking?
No. While most of the islands are eroding very slowly the big island, Hawaii, is actually growing as lava flows from the volcanoes, particularly Kilauea, create new land.
What are advantages and disadvantages of volcanoes?
Volcanoes can create more land but can kill plants and animals while flowing lava.
