The verb for lava coming out of a volcano is 'erupt.

Lava erupts from volcano then flows down the flanks.

For very viscous lavas, the lava forms a dome in the mouth of the volcano (which, when it gets too big collapses to form pyroclastic flows), in this instance the eruption is a growth, dome growth!

What type of eruption produces a gentle flow of lava?

A type of eruption that produces a gentle flow of lava is called an effusive eruption. In these eruptions, lava flows steadily and slowly, typically without explosive activity. The lava tends to have low viscosity, allowing it to flow easily across the surface of the volcano.


Do shield volcanoes have high silica content in the lava?

No, shield volcanoes typically have low silica content in their lava, which results in fluid-like, runny eruptions. This low silica content allows for the lava to flow easily and create the wide, gentle slopes characteristic of shield volcanoes.


Who are effected from the volcanoes?

mostly wildlife and people living in the radius of the lava flow.

Why is it that pahoehoe and AA lava are more frequent in shield volcanoes than in composite volcanoes?

Shield volcanoes have low viscosity basaltic lava, which typically creates pahoehoe and AA lava flows due to their ability to flow easily. Composite volcanoes have higher viscosity lava, such as andesitic or dacitic, which tend to form thicker and blockier lava flows rather than pahoehoe and AA flows.


Can lava make volcanoes?

NO, volcanoes make lava.
