4
Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics: 200 Question: This is an area where magma melts through the crust in the middle of a plate Answer Hot Spot
5
Question: Volcanoes are NOT typically found on this kind of boundary Answer Transform Boundary Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics: 400
6
Question: This is a major volcanic belt that is formed by the many volcanoes that rim the Pacific Ocean Answer The Ring of Fire Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics: 600
7
Question: Japan, New Zealand, Indonesia, the Caribbean Islands, the Philippines, and the Aleutian Islands in Alaska are examples of this type of landform … created as a result of subduction where two oceanic plate collide Answer Volcanic Island Arcs Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics: 800
8
Question: As the Big Island of Hawaii drifts away from the hot spot over which it presently sits, this term will eventually used to describe the volcano on the island Answer Extinct Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics: 1000
9
Volcanic Activity: 200 Question: Changes in this allow magma to rise upward before it eventually breaks through the overlying rock Answer Density – Magma is less dense
10
Volcanic Activity: 400 Question: High concentrations of this can determine how explosive an eruption will be, causing changes in pressure Answer Gases within the magma
11
Volcanic Activity: 600 Question: Thicker magma has more of this within it Answer Silica
12
Volcanic Activity: 800 Question: These occur when an explosive eruption hurls out ash, cinders, and bombs as well as gases Answer Pyroclastic Flow
13
Question: If magma flows easily and gently, this type of eruption occurs Answer Quiet Eruption Volcanic Activity: 1000
14
Volcanic Landforms: 200 Question: Some lava flows build this type of wide, gently sloping mountain from quiet eruptions Answer Shield Volcano
15
Question: When lava flows alternate with explosive eruptions of ash, cinder, and bombs, the result can produce this kind of volcano. Answer Composite (or Strata-) Volcano Volcanic Landforms: 400
16
Question: Calderas, a large hole formed after an eruption, are created because of this Answer When the top of the mountain collapses as a result of the magma chamber being emptied after an enormous eruption Volcanic Landforms: 600
17
Question: Cinder Cone Volcanoes are created by this kind of lava Answer Thick and stiff lava – produces cinders and bombs Volcanic Landforms: 800
18
Question: This is a mass of rock formed when a large body of magma cools inside the crust Answer A Batholith Volcanic Landforms: 1000
19
Name That Volcano: 200 Question: In Indonesia, this violent eruption killed 36,000 victims and could be heard from 5,000 km away Answer Krakatau
20
Question: The Caribbean Island of Martinique saw an eruption that created a dangerous cloud of gas and pyroclastic flow that killed 29,000 residents within two minutes Answer Mt. Pelee Name That Volcano: 400
21
Question: Although this volcano was dormant for hundreds of years, it spewed out huge quantities of ash that rose high into the atmosphere and buried the surrounding countryside in the Philippines Answer Mt. Pinatubo Name That Volcano: 600
22
Question: Small earthquakes and a bulge on the mountain side caused by the buildup of magma inside, which eventually caused a huge landslide, were precursors to this famous eruption in the United States Answer Mt. St. Helens Name That Volcano: 800
23
Question: This volcano devastated an entire civilization, which was left preserved by pyroclastic debris Answer Mt. Vesuvius Name That Volcano: 1000
24
Time To Draw: 200 Question: Illustrate how Hot Spot Volcanoes form Answer
25
Question: Display how Volcanic Island Arcs are created Answer Time To Draw: 400
26
Question: Compare Quiet and Explosive Eruptions Answer Time To Draw: 600
27
Question: Draw the anatomy of a volcano Answer Time To Draw: 800
28
Question: Draw a sketch of a map showing areas where both Earthquakes and Volcanoes are commonly found Answer Time To Draw: 1000
29
Bonus Question: 5000 pts. Question: This is how you correctly spell the name of the Icelandic volcano that disrupted flight arrivals and departures during its 2010 eruption Answer
