Think it's a batholith. I always get this and a caldera confused.
A bowl-shaped depression that forms around the vent of a volcano is a crater. These craters can be formed by the explosion of volcanic material or the collapse of the volcanic cone following an eruption.
The basin-shaped crater at the top of a volcano is called a caldera. It is typically formed after a volcanic eruption causes the volcano to collapse inward, creating a large depression. Calderas can range in size from a few kilometers to tens of kilometers in diameter.
A caldera.
The opening of the volcano is called crater. A crater may be large in dimension or deep. This is where the magma erupts.
If you look at the volcano side ways that little curve on top is called a cradle i think
It is called a Gong

The basin shaped crater at the top of a mountain is called a caldera. It forms when a volcano collapses into itself after an eruption, creating a large, circular depression.

The bowl-shaped area around a volcano's central vent is called a crater. Craters are formed by explosive volcanic activity that creates a depression at the summit of the volcano. They can vary in size and shape depending on the eruption and the type of volcano. Some craters may also fill with water, forming a crater lake.
a funnel shaped vent at the top of a volcano is a crater
A volcanic crater is a large, basin-like depression at the summit of a volcano. It forms when the magma chamber beneath a volcano is emptied during an eruption, causing the overlying rock to collapse into the chamber. Craters can also be formed by explosive eruptions that blow out the summit of a volcano.
yes, I think so. because, very large volume of magma is ejected and then magma chamber can't support the volcano above it. then the volcano begins to sink into the earth.magma chamber empties and a new collapsed depression occurs.
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.
