No, Crater Lake was formed by the collapse of a volcano known as Mount Mazama. Around 7,700 years ago, a massive eruption caused the volcano to collapse into itself, creating a caldera that eventually filled with water to form what is now Crater Lake.
No. Copernicus crater is an impact crater.
When a volcano collapses, it can form a crater or caldera. A crater is a bowl-shaped depression at the top of the volcano, while a caldera is a much larger depression that can form when the center of the volcano collapses. Both features can result in a large, empty space left behind by the volcanic activity.
Craters form normally during impacts from meteorites, but can also have been formed by early volcanic activity. Most early planetoids and moons had Volcanic activity, when a volcano explodes or collapses is leave a caldera, which is a crater looking formation.
No. Gas giants do not have solid surfaces, so there is nothing for a crater to form on.
Material thrown out from an impact crater settles to form a raised rim or ejecta blanket around the crater.
When a meteor hits the Earth it forms a crater.
a gigantic hole in the surface
Probably from the earthquake that happened when the crater hit the earth. The lava rushes to the surface, melting the crater, and it forms a volcano.
It formed a big mountain.
A hill or a crater.
It forms by volcanic activity in the vent of a volcano.

No. Copernicus crater is an impact crater.
Crater Glacier formed in the crater left by the 1980 eruption of Mount St Helens. The glacier formed between the crater's south wall and the cooled lava dome in the middle. The high walls of the crater keep the southern part of the crater in almost perpetual shade. Without sunlight, this location remains cool and so the snow that falls there never completely melts. Over the course of a few years this snow has piled up to form a glacier.
