    This document discusses volcanoes and volcanic eruptions. It defines volcanoes as openings in the Earth's crust through which molten rock and gases are released. It explains that volcanoes form when magma rises to the surface from the Earth's mantle or subduction zones. The document describes the parts of a volcano including the magma chamber, conduit, ash cloud, lava flow, crater, sill, and cone. It discusses how magma becomes lava during an eruption and the hazards caused by volcanic eruptions like gases, ash, lava, and rock. The document provides questions about volcanic characteristics, components, hazards, preparedness, and environmental impacts.

    Volcanoes are openings in the Earth's crust through which molten rock,
    gas, and other materials are released from deep within the Earth.

    Volcanoes are formed when molten rock


    called magma rises to the surface. The
    magma can come from the Earth's
    mantle or from subduction zones where
    one tectonic plate slides beneath another.

    How do volcanoes
    erupt?
    Molten rock below the surface of the Earth that
    rises in volcanic vents is known as magma, but
    after it erupts from a volcano it is called lava.
    Magma is made of molten rock, crystals, and
    dissolved gas—imagine an unopened bottle of
    soda with grains of sand inside. The molten rock is
    made of the chemicals oxygen, silicon, aluminum,
    iron, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium,
    titanium, and manganese. After cooling, liquid
    magma may form crystals of various minerals until
    Volcanoes spew hot, dangerous gases, ash, lava,
    and rock that are powerfully destructive. People
    have died from volcanic blasts. Volcanic eruptions
    can result in additional threats to health, such as
    floods, mudslides, power outages, drinking water
    contamination, and wildfires. Health concerns after
    a volcanic eruption include infectious disease,
    respiratory illness, burns, injuries from falls, and
    vehicle accidents related to the slippery, hazy
