Magma is underground, when it reaches the surface it becomes lava. So solidified magma is really lava. The lava flow is the liquid lava as it goes down the mountain, when hard its just hardened lava.

What is a solid magma core exposed when volcano cone erodes away?

A solid magma core exposed when a volcano cone erodes away is called a volcanic neck. It forms when magma hardens inside a volcano's vent, which is then exposed as the surrounding cone erodes over time. Volcanic necks are typically made of more erosion-resistant rock compared to the surrounding material, which allows them to remain standing as the cone erodes away.

Does a volcano make magma?

A volcano does not make magma. The magma is created underground by melted rocks due to the earth's core temperature. When na big amount of magma is created, the volcano feels pressure, and then it errupts magma, but it does not make it.

How does the magma get into the volcano?

It doesn't. The volcano is a result of the magma travelling from the earths core through geological faults and breaking through the crust of the Earth. The mountain shaped Volcano that you see is the remnants of solidified ash and magma (pumice) which has been ejected from the magma chamber. This cone builds up over the fissure which ejects the magma onto the surface.


The inner core is made mostly of what?

Its magma not solid if that's what u think


If the pressure of the core of the earth is so great why doesn't it explode like a volcano would?

When a volcano explodes, it is due to the decompression of gasses trapped in the magma. A gas will expand greatly with a large pressure change. A liquid or solid will not. Additionally, the core has thousands of miles of rock on top of it. The weight of the rocks is what generates the enormous pressure, and it is also what holds the high pressure environment in place.
