Lava is just magma that has reached the surface.
Lava.
No, the Giants Causeway is a natural feature of volcanic activity. The factthat you can see it is because the old rock lying on top of it has been eroded but the shape of the rocks was created by the cooling of the lava/magma
Not a bomb in the usual sense- lava bombs are globs of lava formed inside of a volcano- blown out by the force of an eruption.
Mount Pinatubo primarily erupts dacitic magma.
As with some other eruptions, the magma in the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius was different from how may people think about it. It was extremly viscous and had large amounts of gas trapped in it. So, instead of flowing or fountaining out of the volcano, the magma came out explosively. As it was blasted into the air, most of it formed into fine particles fo glass called volcanic ahs, while some of the larger globs formed pumice.
yes. magma is the lava that is in the volcano and lava is the magma that is outside a volcano
Magma is just lava inside the earth, and lava is just magma outside the earth.
Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface, while lava is magma that reaches the surface through a volcano or fissure. So, while all lava was once magma, not all magma will reach the surface as lava.
Magma that flows onto the Earth's surface is called Lava.
Lava is magma, that has reached the surface.
Lava and magma are composed of molten rock.
Magma is lava before it actually reaches the surface of the Earth. So magma comes from a volcano, not lava.
Lava and magma are both substances produced by volcanoes. There is a difference between the two, however. Specifically, magma has not yet come out of a volcano, while lava is magma that has erupted out of the cone.
Magma that flows onto Earth's surface is called lava.
it's lava but in it's liquid form. A common misconception between magma and lava is lava is solid and magma is liquid hot.
Magma is underground, when it reaches the surface it becomes lava. So solidified magma is really lava. The lava flow is the liquid lava as it goes down the mountain, when hard its just hardened lava.

Lava is the name for molten rock that appears at or near the surface from volcanic activity.
