  • 2 weeks old->
  • 4 weeks old->
  • 100 years old->
  • They can drill into the magma from the top and might find some fossils.
  • Volcanoes erupt when 2 tectonic plates collide.
  • Volcanoes form new land, it can move rivers, they can transform lakes.
  • Volcanoes ooze or explode.
  • Newer rock means that it is younger, if it is further under the surface that means it is older.
  • Dormant- sleeping volcano.200 years hasn't erupted.
  • Extincted
  • Plume- Its a ball of lava coming out of the earths surface.
  • Three tipes of Volcanoes:
  • Shield
  • Cone
  • Caldera
  • Lava is 1,000 c

Paragraph:

When lava comes out of a volcano it forms layers. It could go like: 2 weeks old-> 4 weeks old-> 100 years old->

Newer rock means that it is younger, if it is further under the surface that means it is older. Miners can drill into the magma from the top and might find some fossils underneath. Volcanoes erupt when 2 tectonic plates collide. And Volcanoes form when 2 tectonic plates converge. Volcanoes form new land, they can move rivers, and they can transform lakes. Volcanoes ooze or explode. Lava is 1,000 c. Dormant- sleeping volcano. 200 years hasn't erupted (Extinct), Plume- It’s a ball of lava coming out of the earth’s surface. Three types of Volcanoes: Shield, Cone, Caldera.
