- A natural opening of the earth where molten rocks, hot gases, smoke and ash are rejected from the earth's surface
- Highest point of the apex of a volcano
- A surface of which one end or side is at a higher level than another, a rising of falling level.
- Lowest part/bottom part supporting the layer of the volcano
- It has records of eruption within 10,000 years and last 600 years
- Has no records of eruption for the last 10,000 years
- has not erupted but may erupt in the future
- Not expected to erupt
- Formed by the accumulation of lava that oozes out from the volcano
- Has large crater
- Large nearly perfect slope structures formed by an alternate solidification of both lava and pyroclastic deposit examples
- Stream driven eruption as the hot rocks come in contact with water and it is short lived characterized
- Violent Eruption and a large column of very fine ash
- Periodic Weak to violent eruption
- Tall eruption that reaches up to 20km high
- Explosive type and Violent eruption
- High in iron, magnesium, and calcium but low in potassium and sodium
- A magma has moderate amounts of these minerals, with a temperature range from about 800oC to 1000oC (1472oF to 1832oF)
- A magma is high in potassium and sodium but low in iron, magnesium, and calcium. It occurs in the temperature range of about 650oC to 800oC (1202oF to 1472oF). Both the temperature and mineral content of magma affect how easily it flows.
- The resistance to flow
- IT is a heat coming from inside of the earth
- Give 5 steps to generate a geothermal powerplant
