Where do volcanoes explode?

Answer 1

Volcanoes explode out of openings in the earth where lava bursts through. Typically the volcanoes are assumed to erupt from the top, or peek. However, it is common for a volcano to also erupt from the side of the cone shaped volcano.

Answer 2

Seasons are to do with weather and climate. A volcano may erupt anytime not in summer or winter, that is irrelevant.

Volcanoes do not erupt in a season, the reason they erupt is due to the build up of magma in the Earth's crust below the place they erupt.

Some volcanoes are:

extinct, nothing happening for a very long time

dormant, they have not erupted for a long time but might become active in 500-1000 years

active, they 'dribble or spew' all the time

new ones which erupt sometimes after other thermal activity becomes apparent sometimes unexpectedly but usually in an area where there are other volcanoes or thermal activity.

An example is the Volcanic Plateau in New Zealand which is part of the Pacific Rim of Fire where many extinct, dormant and active volcanoes are situated.

Answer 3

Volcanoes erupt due to the build up of magma (rocks are cooled magma which is made liquid by intense heat) in the Earth's crust below the place they erupt. This is called seismic activity.

Some types of volcanoes are:

New ones which erupt sometimes after other thermal activity becomes apparent sometimes unexpectedly but usually in an area where there are other volcanoes or thermal activity.

An example is the Volcanic Plateau in New Zealand which is part of the Pacific Rim of Fire where many extinct, dormant and active volcanoes are situated.

Answer 4

Volcanoes explode at their summit or along their sides where pressure from magma builds up and eventually erupts, releasing ash, gas, and lava. The location of the explosion depends on the specific characteristics and structure of the volcano.

Answer 5

Volcanoes erupt gases such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, chlorine, and fluorine.

Answer 6

There have been volcano eruptions al over the world. Some famous eruptions include Peru, Indonesia, Guatemala, Alaska, the Philippines, Greece, as well as China.

Answer 7

Volcanoes usually eupt on the edge of the plates below the earths crust.

Answer 8

bc they had too much soda.
