Do all volcanoes produce lava rivers?
No.
How much lava can a volcano produce?
Depends, all volcanoes have different amounts of lava.
What is the lava in mid oceanic volcanoes made of?
Lava in mid-oceanic volcanoes is typically basaltic in composition. Basalt lava is relatively low in silica content and flows more easily compared to other types of lava. It often forms underwater pillow lava structures when it comes in contact with seawater.
What are six landforms from lava and ash?
I only know four they are shield volcanoes, composite volcanoes, and lava plateaus thats all I know
Do all volcanoes erupt lava?
Lava emissions are found with all active volcanoes, although some volcano emit more lave than others.
Does a volcano have lava?
All volcanoes do have lava (magma), mostly in their young and early (ie, active) stages.
Do volcanoes strike in the same place twice?
A volcano is a geologic feature, not an event. An event in which a volcano produces lava or ash is a volcanic eruptions. Virtually all volcanoes will erupt multiple times.
What are all kinds of volcanoes?
The main types of volcanoes are stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and lava dome volcanoes. Stratovolcanoes have steep slopes due to the alternating layers of lava flows, ash, and other volcanic debris. Shield volcanoes have gentle slopes due to the low-viscosity lava flows. Cinder cone volcanoes are small and steep-sided, formed from explosive eruptions. Lava dome volcanoes are formed from slow, viscous lava flows piling up near the vent.
Are shield volcanoes and volcanoes the same?
No, shield volcanoes are a specific type of volcano characterized by their broad, gentle slopes and low viscosity lava flows. "Volcano" is a general term that refers to any landform where volcanic activity occurs, encompassing a variety of volcano types such as shield, composite, and cinder cone volcanoes.
Why shield volcanoes wide but not tall?
Basically because the type of lava they are made from is runnier and therefore spreads out more.
What type of lava do strato volcanoes have?
Strato volcanoes typically have viscous lava with high silica content, known as andesitic or dacitic lava. This type of lava tends to form steep-sided volcanic cones due to its ability to cool and harden quickly, leading to explosive eruptions.
How many volcanos are made of lava?
All volcanoes are composed of lava to some extent, as lava is formed during volcanic eruptions. However, the specific type of lava and its properties can vary based on the composition of the magma beneath the volcano.
