Question
Answer
3 factors that affect the formation of magma   temperature, pressure, and water  
🗑
magmas are named after ____rocks   extursive  
🗑
basaltic magma forms when rocks in the ____melt   upper mantle  
🗑
basaltic magma contains small amounts of silica and a low____   viscosity  
🗑
andesitic magma forms from oceanic crust and____   sediments  
🗑
_____magma fuels volcanoes with intermediate eruption   andesitic  
🗑
rhyolitic magma forms deep beneath ____crust   continental  
🗑
rhyolitic magma has the highest____content of 3 types of magma   silica  
🗑
rhyolitic magma has the same composition of____. also has a high viscosity and flows___   granite , slowly  
🗑
___magma produces very explosive volcanoes.   rhyolitic  
🗑
how does the viscosity of magma change as magma cools?   the amount of silica in magma increases viscosity  
🗑
_=quick flow, low viscosity,50%silica _=resistance to flow, high V,70%silca   basaltic & rhyolitic  
🗑
Intrusive igneous rock body   pluton  
🗑
largest pluton   batholith  
🗑
Irregular shape, pluton looks like batholith but smaller   stock  
🗑
mushroom-shaped pluton   laccolith  
🗑
pluton that is parallel to the rock it intrudes   sill  
🗑
pluton that cuts across preexisting rocks   dike  
🗑
process responcible for the formation of many plutons   mountain-building  
🗑
lava erupts through an opening in earths surface called a ___   vent  
🗑
a bowl-shaped depression that forms around the vent of a volcano is a __   crater  
🗑
rock fragments thrown into the air during a volcanic eruption is___   tephra  
🗑
the smallest tephra are___   dust  
🗑
fast moving clouds of gas ash and other tephra are___   pyroclastic flows  
🗑
what forms when the top/side of a volcano collapses into magma chamber?   caldera  
🗑
when magma reaches earths surface, it is called....   Lava  
🗑
underwater volcanoes that have not reached the surface   seamounts  
🗑
where do volcanoes form?   subduction boundries,  
🗑
these, form on the overriding plate oceanic/oceanic or oceanic/continental, 80% of volcanoes are found here   subduction boundriessss  
🗑
major belts formed at convergent boundries. 1   pacific ring of fire ( CIRCUM PACIFIC BELT)  
🗑
major belts formed at convergent boundries. 2   divergent boundries ( also occurs at midocean ridges called seafloor spreading)  
🗑
major belts formed at convergent boundries.3   hot spots  
🗑
form when a plume of magma in the mantle is forced upwards through the curst.   Hot spots!  
🗑
an explosive form of magma   rhyolitic  
🗑
magma with the lowest viscosity   basaltic  
🗑
magma with lowest gas content   bBBasaltic  
🗑
has broad gently sloping sides and a nearly circular base   shield cone  
🗑
small volcano with steep sides   cinder cone  
🗑
most dangerous to humans, & fueled by magma that contains large amounts of silica , water and gases   composit/strauto  
🗑
