Page 35 - What is a dormant volcano?
Hasn't erupted in 10,00 years
Is hibernating
Isn't erupting currently
Hasn't erupted in a long time
2
Page 37 - How did the Ring of Fire get its name?
It is one of the most volcanically active areas on Earth
The ring around a volcano burns in a perfect circle
It forms a ring along the boundaries of the Pacific Plate
It's always on fire
3
Page 33 - How did the eruption of Tambora affect the weather?
Ash in the air blocked the sun
It did not have an effect on the weather
Caused an ice age
Made the summer extra hot
4
Page 40 - What happens below the earth's surface to form geysers?
Steam bubbles form and pop
Magma creates hot water and steam. Steam is forced upward.
Hot water escapes through a crack in the crust
Hot spring water enters the mantle and turns lava into steam
5
Page 35 - What is an active volcano?
It likes to work out
Constantly erupts
Has erupted in the past 10,000 years and is likely to erupt
Is currently erupting
6
Page 35 - What is an extinct volcano?
A volcano that has never erupted
A volcano that has not erupted for 10,000 years
A volcano species that has died out
A fossilized volcano
7
Page 36 - What is subduction?
A submarine full of ducks
When two tectonic plates separate
When an oceanic plate goes under a lighter continental plate
When two tectonic plates hit each other
8
Page 40 - What happens above the Earth's surface to cause geysers?
When lava touches water it turns into a steam explosion
Global warming causes the water to heat up and explode
Water drains into a volcano
Water drains into magma chambers
9
Page 36 - Why do volcanoes occur at subduction zones?
Tectonic plate collisions send magma into the sky
Volcanoes don't happen at subduction zones
The fast collision of tectonic plates forces an eruption
The subducting plate melts
10
Page 39 - How does an undersea volcano become a chain of islands?
During eruptions a part of crust breaks off and floats away
Underwater volcano gradually rises above the ocean's surface
Fish swarm around volcanoes and poop out enough sand
11
Page 34 - What goes on above Earth's surface to form a volcano?
A crack in the surface and hard lava covers the crack
A giant lava bubble forms and pops
Lava rain
A crack in the surface and volcano gets taller
12
Pages 32 & 33 - What are ways erupting volcanoes can change Earth's surface?
Release rivers of lava that can burn everything in the path
Spread new plant life
Add new land
Bring minerals from deep inside the earth to the surface
13
Page 34 - What goes on beneath Earth's surface to form a volcano?
A crack in the core
Tremendous pressure and heat force magma upward
There is an explosion beneath the surface of the Earth
It causes epicenters to form
14
Page 38 - What is a hotspot?
A place where lava gathers
The hot air above a volcano
A place where volcanoes happen not along a plate boundary
An area with a really hot climate due to increased volcanoes
15
Page 38 - In what layer of the Earth do hotspots form?
The oceanic crust
The mantle
The continental crust
The core
