It's gonna blow!
This process is when magma, along with other materials, pushes up out of the earth and onto volcano's surface
What is eruption?
Salt, wood, or water
What is salt?
Formed from cooled and hardened lava or magma
What is igneous rock?
This geological process breaks down rock into sediments
What is weathering?
These are large pieces of the crust and upper mantle that float on the lower part of the upper mantle
What are tectonic plates?
Mount Semeru in Indonesia is a volcano in this condition, erupting on and off since 1818.
What is active?
Oil, Amethyst, or Sugar
What is Amethyst?
Granite, a well-known rock formed underground, is this type of igneous rock.
What is intrusive?
Wind carrying sediments across the land is an example of this.
What is erosion?
An area where 2 tectonic plates collide
What is a convergent boundary?
More than 75% of volcanoes sit along this
What is the Ring of Fire?
Soil, Gold, or Helium
What is gold?
Sedimentary rocks can include these once living creatures from the past
What are fossils?
The sand that is left by a river at the delta is one example of this geologic process.
What is deposition?
What are earthquakes?
The bowl shaped opening at the top of a volcano
What is the crater?
Copper, Sandstone, or Oxygen
What is copper?
What is clay?
What is high heat and pressure?
The energy released during an earthquake travels through the earth as these
What are seismic waves?
Felsic and Mafic lava are different in this property
What is viscosity? (Or thick/thin or silica content)
Granite, Seashell, or Quartz
What is quartz?
This banding pattern is often found in metamorphic rocks due to high heat and pressure changing the chemical structure of the rock.
What is foliated?
A metamorphic rock that later becomes an igneous rock goes through this
What is melting and cooling/hardening?
This spot is directly above the focus of an earthquake and is the point where the surface waves begin
What is the epicenter?
