Volcanoes  Volcanoes form at weak spots in the Earth’s crust.  Magma is a molten mixture of rocky substances. It forms within the Earth in the Magma chamber  Lava forms when magma reaches the Earth’s surface and erupts from the volcano crater

Types of Volcanoes

Types of volcanoes Compare and contrast. This means to state how they are the same and how they are different

What determines lava flow?  Name 3 features that determine lava flow. In other words, state the factors that make lava flow quickly or slowly.
