subduction, mid-ocean ridges, or hotspots
Shield, Cinder Cone, or Composite
Crater, Calderas, predicting, lava, or pyroclastic material
extinct, active, erupting, dormant, or lava tubes
Io, Mars, extraterrestrial, moon, or vent
100
Fissures, or cracks that lava flow through
Mid-ocean ridges
100
the type of volcano that is formed by moderate explosives that produce a lot of pyroclastic material, and erodes quickly because of the loose pyroclastic material.
Cinder cone
100
the funnel shaped pit at the top of a volcano.
crater
100
an active volcano that is having an eruption
erupting
100
once had active volcanoes, it has basaltic lava flows, the Maria-Deep basin is covered with lava, and there is no evidence of tectonics or convection currents so magma would have been produces from intense heat caused from meteorite bombardment.
moon
200
Known for creating volcanic island chains like the Hawaiian Volcanoes
Hot spots
200
is the type of volcano also known as stratovolcanoes.
Composite
200
arge, semicircular depression that forms when magma chambers below a volcano partially empties and causes the ground above to sink.
Caldera
200
has not had an eruption for at least 10,000 years and is not expected to erupt again in for a comparable time frame in the future
extinct
200
has many volcanic features on its surface, its crust does not drift, Olympus Mons is the largest shield volcano, and we are unsure if the volcanoes are still active.
Mars
300
Not located along plate boundaries
Hot-Spots
300
is the type of volcano that is built by repeated nonexplosive eruptions
shield
300
flows out of vents and remains liquid for some time.
lava
300
has erupted at least once in the last 10,000 years
dormant
300
is a moon of Jupiter that has more active volcanoes than earth
Io
400
Located along divergent plate boundaries
Mid-Ocean ridges
400
is the type of volcano that has steep slopes, usually only erupts for a shot time and is often found in clusters.
Cinder
400
are solid objects blasted into the air or materials which harden while in the air.
pyroclastic material
400
an active volcano that is not erupting, but is supposed to erupt again in the future
active
400
Planets and moons within our solar system that once had active volcanoes or are still active today are called ____ Volcanism.
extratessestrial
500
The Pacific Ring of Fire, a zone of major active volcanoes that surrounds the Pacific Ocean
Subduction Zone
500
is the type of volcano that has created the largest mountain in the world
Shield
500
Seismographs may detect small earthquakes that may be a warning signal used for ____ volcanic eruptions.
predicting
500
has a hardened shell exterior and a molten interior
lava tubes
500
an opening on the earth’s surface through which magma and gasses are released
Vent
