1) What is a volcano? A mountain that forms when molten rock (magma) is forced to the Earth’s surface. Mt. Saint Helens, Washington Last Eruption 2008 Pavlof Volcano, Alaska Last Eruption 2007

Active Volcanoes of the World

2) What are the parts of a volcano? Magma Chamber –large underground pool of molten rock. Main Vent – where hot magma has reached the surface. Crater – a funnel shaped pit at the top of the volcano. Ash Cloud – gas and small pieces of pulverized rock.

2) What are the parts of a volcano? Lava – Molten rock above the Earth’s surface. Pyroclastic Material – rock fragments, ash, gas released during eruption. Side Vent – secondary place where lava escapes the volcano.

3) What are the three types of volcanoes? ShieldComposite Cinder Cone

Shield Volcanoes Formed from runny lava and basalt Non explosive eruptions Gentle sloping sides Wide base Forms underwater

Examples of Shield Volcanoes Hawaiian Islands

Cinder Cone Volcanoes Made of pyroclastic material Explosive eruptions Steep sides Narrow base Found in clusters Erode quickly because there is no lava to cement rocks together

Examples of Cinder Cone Volcanoes Paricutin - Mexico

Composite Volcanoes Made from alternating layers of lava and pyroclastic material Non explosive and explosive eruptions Steep sides Wide base Also called Stratovolcano

Example of Composite Volcano Mount Hood, Oregon

4) What is a non explosive volcano? A volcano that produces lava flows.

5) What is an explosive volcano? Volcanoes that blast out gas, rock, ashes/dust, and superheated steam.

6) What determines if a volcano is explosive or non explosive? The composition of the magma determines what type of eruption. - Explosive volcanoes have more water and silica.

7) What is a caldera? A circular depression that forms when a magma chamber empties and causes the ground above it to sink.
