Volcano's
Across
- 4. The pipe that carries magma from a reservoir or chamber to the vent where it is erupted.
- 6. A sudden and especially violent explosion produced during a volcanic eruption.
- 7. The opening at the Earth's surface where magma, rock fragments, and/or volcanic gases are emitted.
- 9. hot, pressurized volcanic gas that can cause a volcanic explosion or blast.
- 11. A volcano that is not erupting now, but is considered likely to erupt in the future.
- 12. A vent in the surface of the Earth which magma and gases erupt, and form a structure.
- 14. A bowl depression that usually lies directly above the vent from which volcanic material is ejected.
- 16. a sudden motion or trembling in the crust.
- 17. A surface feature of a geothermal system, where warm or hot water flows out of the ground.
- 18. Molten rock beneath the surface of the earth that erupts from a volcano as lava.
Down
- 1. the effusion of lava to the surface of the earth.
- 2. The zone of the Earth below the crust and above the core.
- 3. A volcano that is currently erupting or has erupted during the last 10,000 years.
- 5. Earth's outermost layer or shell.
- 6. plate boundaries are where the tectonic plates are moving towards each other.
- 8. mixture of rock, mineral, and glass pieces expelled from a volcano during an eruption.
- 10. an opening in the Earth's crust through which lava, ash, and gases erupt and create a volcano.
- 13. Fine particles of pulverized rock (tephra) erupted from the vent of a volcano.
- 15. Molten rock that has reached the Earth's surface and flowed from a volcano .
- 18. The reservoir beneath a volcanic vent where magma resides prior to eruption.
