Sunset Crater was fed by basaltic magma.
The location of a volcano can affect the magma composition by influencing the source of the magma. Magma composition can vary based on factors like the depth of the magma source, the presence of subducted materials, and the amount of water and gases present. Different locations can have different geological conditions that influence the composition of the magma erupted by a volcano.
Mt. Hekla in Iceland has a composition of intermediate to felsic magma, which is rich in silica, giving it a higher viscosity compared to basaltic magma. This type of magma can lead to explosive eruptions.
The composition of magma can be modified by the addition of new material, such as when magma assimilates surrounding rock as it rises to the surface. Magma composition can also be altered through fractional crystallization, where minerals crystallize and separate from the remaining melt. Mixing of different magma batches can further modify composition through hybridization.

The average composition of rocks in a large composite cone or stratovolcano is similar to andesitic magma. Andesitic magma is intermediate in composition between basaltic and rhyolitic magma, containing elements such as silica, magnesium, and iron. This magma type is responsible for the explosive eruptions characteristic of stratovolcanoes.
No. Almost all large solid objects in the solar system have craters.

Pulverized rock except where they have been filled with eruptive magma.
Two types of moon craters are impact craters, formed by asteroids or meteoroids hitting the moon's surface, and volcanic craters, formed by volcanic activity on the moon when magma rises to the surface and erupts.
Magma is not a mineral becauseIt is liquid.It does not have a definite chemical composition.

magma can be classified into two,magma of granitic composition(originates from lower continental crust) and magma of basaltic composition (which originates from upper mantle).Both can form intrusive rocks.
