Vulcan- Roman God of Fire Volcanoes Vulcan- Roman God of Fire

What is a volcano? Volcano- Areas of earth’s surface through which magma and volcanic gases pass Volcano comes from the Roman word Vulcan, which means “fire”

What’s inside a volcano? Magma Chamber- molten rock that feeds a volcano Vents- cracks in the crust What is the difference between magma and lava?

Types of Volcanoes Shield Volcano Built from layers of lava Non-explosive eruptions Not very steep, but can be big

Types of Volcanoes Cinder Cone Volcano Built from pyroclastic material Moderately explosive, short eruptions Small in size, steep slopes

Types of Volcanoes Composite Volcanoes Most common type Explosive eruptions and lava flow Built from pyroclastic material AND lava
