What is a slab of rock when magma squeezes between layers of rock?
sill
Which of earths layers is formed by volcanic activity?
Crust
What are sills?
Magma that cuts parallel through rocks or rock walls
What is magma that squeezes into vertical cracks between rocks and then hardens is called?
The magma that squeezes into vertical cracks between rocks and then hardens is called a dike. Dikes are tabular bodies of igneous rock that cut across the existing rock layers.
When sedimentary rock is formed what is the process called when the grains join?
The process of grains joining together to form sedimentary rock is called compaction. As layers of sediment accumulate on top of each other, the weight from the overlying layers squeezes out water and air between the grains, causing them to compact and bind together.
When magma squeezes between layers of rock forms what?
A sill is formed.
When magma squeezes between horizontal lines it forms?
if it squeezes into a fault, its a dike, if it squeezes between horizontal layers, its a sill

What landform is created when magma squeezes between rock layers to forma hardened slab of rock?
If vertical, a dyke; if horizontal, a sill.
What type of mountain in not formed due to plate collision?
Volcanic mountains are not formed due to plate collision. Instead, they are formed when magma from within the Earth erupts onto the surface and builds up layers of volcanic rock over time.
When sedimentary rock is formed what is the process called when the grains join?
The process of grains joining together to form sedimentary rock is called compaction. As layers of sediment accumulate on top of each other, the weight from the overlying layers squeezes out water and air between the grains, causing them to compact and bind together.
What kind of mountain range is formed when layers are squeezed and forced upward?
Volcanic Mountains Folded Mountains to be correct!
What is a volcanic dike?
A dike is an intrusive body of volcanic magma that pushes it's way between layers of rocks and sediment.
