Many things can form volcanoes. A shield volcano is formed by quiet eruptions of magma in the earth. The magma keeps piling on top of each other, forming a gently- slopping mountain. A cinder cone is formed when layers made of materials like tephra, ash, cinders, and bombs pile on top of each other to form a tall, steep cone-like mountain. A composite volcano is formed when layers of tephra, ash, cinders, and bombs alternate and pile on top of other layers of magma. This forms a normal-shaped mountain.
What else can I help you with?
Magma that is rejected during a volcanic eruption forms igneous rocks?
Magma that is ejected during a volcanic eruption forms extrusive igneous rocks. They are also referred to as volcanic rocks.
Low silica magma forms rocks like?
Low silica magma forms rocks like basalt and gabbro. These rocks are dense, fine-grained, and dark in color. They are commonly found in oceanic crust and volcanic islands.
What volcanic features forms as a result of hydrothermal activity associated with hot volcanic rocks and Magmas?
Geysers, hot springs, fumaroles, and mud pots are some of the volcanic features that form as a result of hydrothermal activity associated with hot volcanic rocks and magmas. These features occur when groundwater comes into contact with magma or hot rocks underground, leading to the circulation of heated water that eventually reaches the surface in various forms.
What are volcanic rocks?
Volcanic rocks are classified as extrusive igneous rocks, forming from the solidification of lava.
What are all the igneous rocks?
All Igneous rocks are:CrystallineComposed of mineralsFormed from magma/lava (except for 'tuff' which forms from ash, which is a volcanic product)(Please add more)
Magma that is rejected during a volcanic eruption forms igneous rocks?
Magma that is ejected during a volcanic eruption forms extrusive igneous rocks. They are also referred to as volcanic rocks.
When igneous rock from volcanic eruption cool what does it form?
When igneous rocks from a volcanic eruption cools it forms Crystalline Rocks.

Forms when magma cools within earth?
Volcanic neck.
Are Volcanic rocks metal?
No. Volcanic rocks are made of the same materials that other rocks are.
What is a belonite?
A belonite is one of the minute acicular or dendritic crystalline forms sometimes observed in glassy volcanic rocks.
Are metamorphic rocks volcanic?
No. Only extrusive igneous rocks are volcanic.
What are volcanic rocks?
Volcanic rocks are classified as extrusive igneous rocks, forming from the solidification of lava.
Are intrusive rocks volcanic?
No. Volcanic rocks are extrusive. Intrusive rocks are sometimes called plutonic.
