3 What is a volcano? A) The highest peak in a mountain range.
B) A flat surface on the earth’s crust. C) A character on Star Trek. D) A thin spot or fissure in the earth’s crust.

4 What is a volcano? A) The highest peak in a mountain range.
B) A flat surface on the earth’s crust. C) A character on Star Trek. D) A thin spot or fissure in the earth’s crust.

5 Why do volcanoes erupt? Hot, melted rock (magma) deep within the earth becomes lighter as it heats up., it rises until it pushes to the surface of the earth. A volcanic eruption occurs!

6 Melted rock that erupts from a volcano is called . . .
A) magma B) lava C) glupacose D) molten rock

7 Melted rock that erupts from a volcano is called . . .
A) magma B) lava C) glupacose D) molten rock

8 Where do volcanoes erupt?
A) In the middle of the earth’s plates, hotspots. B) Near the edges of the earth’s plates. C) Subduction and rift zones. D) All of the above.

9 Where do volcanoes erupt?
A) In the middle of the earth’s plates, hotspots. B) Near the edges of the earth’s plates. C) Subduction and rift zones. D) All of the above.

10 Why do volcanoes grow? A) Repeated eruptions
B) There are various types of volcanoes and each forms differently C) Volcanoes were formed when the earth was formed and haven’t changed much since then. D) Both A and B

12 What are the 3 main shapes of volcanoes?
A) Dome, Funnel, and crater B) Shield, Cinder, and Composite C) Volcanic, Tephra, and Slope D) Hydrosphere, Cryosphere, and Lithosphere

14 A shield volcano is formed when
Great masses of lava slowly ooze out from an opening in the earth’s crust, forming a broad, gentle slope. Lava, huge rocks, cinders and ash explode high into the air forming a steep cone up to 35 degrees. Formed by quiet and explosive eruptions. Concave formation in the earth’s crust.

16 A cinder cone is formed when

18 A composite cone forms when
Great masses of lava slowly ooze out from an opening in the earth’s crust, forming a broad, gentle slope. Lava, huge rocks, cinders and ash explode high into the air forming a steep cone up to 35 degrees. Formed by quiet and explosive eruptions. Concave formation in the earth’s crust.

19 A composite cone forms when
Great masses of lava slowly ooze out from an opening in the earth’s crust, forming a broad, gentle slope. Lava, huge rocks, cinders and ash explode high into the air forming a steep cone up to 35 degrees. Formed by both quiet and explosive eruptions. Concave formation in the earth’s crust.

28 These volcanoes haven’t erupted in recorded history and show no signs of ever erupting.
Dormant Extinct Active Explosive

29 These volcanoes haven’t erupted in recorded history and show no signs of ever erupting.
Dormant Extinct Active Explosive

30 Dormant volcanoes No activity recorded in history.
Have erupted in recent history. Currently erupting. Show signs of activity, but have not erupted in recent history. It is “sleeping.”
