Cinder cone volcano
A steep, cone-shaped mountain.

5. Caldera
A caldera is where a volcano had it’s chamber and pipes drained from an eruption. Eventually, it collapses and leaves a caldera.

6. Hot springs and geysers
A hot spring is where water is near underground magma. That is what makes the hot spring boil. A geyser is where there is an underground pocket of water above a pocket of magma and the water boils and goes shooting to the surface and bursting into air.

7. Lava plateau
Some volcanic eruptions form high, flat areas instead of mountains.
