1 A B C D 1 2 34 Volcanic Environments Match up the volcano with it’s location E 5 Source images wikipedia / USGS

2 A 1 2 34 Volcanic Environments Submarine volcano erupting under the ocean at the Mid Atlantic ridge, a tensional (divergent) plate margin.

3 B 1 2 34 Volcanic Environments Composite cone volcano forming part of an island arc at a compressional margin where two oceanic plates meet and one is subducted under the other.

4 C 1 2 34 Volcanic Environments Composite (stratovolcano) volcano found at a compressional margin where an oceanic plate is subducted beneath a continental plate. Lava is acidic and viscous.

5 D 1 2 34 Volcanic Environments Shield volcano formed at a hotspot in the earth’s crust. Lava is basic and runny. Eruption is non-violent.

6 1 2 34 Volcanic Environments Match up the volcano with it’s location E 5 Source images wikipedia / USGS Caldera formed by collapse of magma chamber. Crater Lake is an example. Super volcanoes are very large calderas.
