How did the wolf volcano erupt?
The lava flowed down the volcano and gas got in the side vents
What is a vent called through which gas and ash and magma erupt onto the earth's surface?
A vent through which gas, ash, and magma erupt onto Earth's surface is called a volcano.
What shoots out of a volcano during an eruption?
It depends on the type of eruption. Some will erupt lava or a mixture of lava and gas. Others will erupt gas, ash, and pumice.
When is a volcano most likely to erupt?
A volcano is most likely to erupt when the pressure from the magma chamber overcomes the strength of the rock holding it in place. This can occur when there is an increase in magma supply, changes in gas content, or disruptions in the surrounding rock. Monitoring systems can help predict when a volcano is likely to erupt.
When does an active volcano erupt?
An active volcano erupts when there is an accumulation of magma beneath the surface that builds up pressure and eventually forces its way out through the volcano's vent. Factors such as the composition of the magma, tectonic activity, and gas content can influence the frequency and intensity of eruptions.

Would a volcano flow lava then explode?
Not usually. It is more common for a volcano to erupt explosively and later extrude gas-depleted lava. That being said, lava domes can sometimes explode.
Does hot spot volcanoes tend to erupt more explosively than other volcanoes?
No they do not erupt more explosively. It depends on its gas and its viscosity. Kilauea in Hawaii does not erupt more explosive.
How many times will a volcano erupt on Jupiter?
No volcanoes will erupt on Jupiter because it is a gas planet. As far as science knows there is no solid ground within the gas of Jupiter, therefore no volcanoes can exist.
Why are volcanoes that erupt infrequently more destructive then volcanoes that erupt continuously?
Volcanoes erupt infrequently more destructive and active than volcanoes that erupt continuously because the volcano that didn't erupt in a while had more pressure than the volcano that erupts constantly. When more pressure builds up, gas wants to get out as soon as possible. When it does, the magma comes out, it pushes and pushes out since all thee pressure builded up.
Does a composite volcano have a high gas content?
Yes. Composite volcanoes often have a high gas content in their magma, which is why they often erupt explosively.
Is volcano and volcanic the same thing?
No. Volcano is a noun describing a mountain or hole in the ground through which lava, ash, and gas can erupt. Volcanic is an adjective that means "of, relating to, or produced by a volcano or volcanoes."
How can you predict WHERE a volcano is going to erupt.?
A volcano will is generally a prominent feature that stays in one place. Monitoring seismic activity, gas emissions, and shifts in the surface on and near a volcano can be used to determine if an eruption is likely.
