What else can I help you with?
Is lava magma when it cools down?
No. Lava is magma that has reached the surface.
How does lava flow from Cinder Cone volcanos?
Lava flows from Cinder Cone volcanoes when pressure from the magma chamber beneath the volcano causes the magma to be forced up to the surface. The lava then flows out of the vent and down the sides of the volcano, often forming steep, narrow streams due to the high viscosity of the lava.
When the magma flows down the side of the volcano what is it called?
Actually, the molten rock is called lava. The magma from the magma chamber shoots up the main vent and when the magma reaches the vent, it will turn into lava. After that.. I don't have any idea..
What do volcanoes do when they errupt?
Boiling hot magma spurts out of the top and flows down the volcano's side, sometimes producing an ash cloud, like Eyjafjallajokull, Iceland in 2010.
What is an opening that leads from the crater of a volcano down to pools of magma?
A volcanic vent or conduit is an opening that leads from the crater of a volcano down to pools of magma below the surface. This conduit allows magma to travel from the magma chamber to the surface during an eruption.
What is a constructive boundarie?
At a constructive plate boundary two plates move apart. As they move apart the magma from the magma chamber flows up to fill the gap. This causes a volcano. However, as the magma can escape easily it flows down the volcano with only a little bit of force. So it has a gentle erupt.
How can you tell that Mount Fuji is a composite volcano rather than a shield volcano?
The volcano is very wide it means that it has mafic magma. The composite volcanoes have mafic magma in them. When the volcano erupts the lava flows down really fast, but hardens really slowly causing the volcano to widen its width size.
Is lava magma when it cools down?
No. Lava is magma that has reached the surface.
What are lava flows on a volcano?
A lava flow is where lava flows down the side of a volcano.

What are magma flow across layers of volcanic cone?
Magma typically rises from the mantle through fractures or conduits in the Earth's crust to reach the surface of a volcanic cone. As the magma ascends, it can pool in magma chambers within different layers of the cone, creating distinct layers of lava flows. The composition, viscosity, and gas content of the magma can influence how it flows across these layers, leading to varied eruption styles and resulting in different types of lava flows.
When magma from beneath the Earths surface erupts as a volcano what happens?
When magma erupts as a volcano, it can cause explosive eruptions that release ash, gases, and lava. The magma can flow down the volcano's slopes, leading to the destruction of surrounding areas and potential harm to human life. Eruptions can also result in pyroclastic flows, lahars, and volcanic ash fall, all of which can have wide-reaching impacts on the environment and local communities.

a vent
What makes a volcano explode for kids?
A volcano explodes when magma (what lava is called when it is underground) comes up with gas trapped in it. The gas can form bubbles in the magma that grow so quickly that it creates an explosion. The real word for this is "erupt" because not all eruptions have explosions. Sometimes the lava just oozes out from the weight of the rock pressing down on the magma.
