Name: ____________________________________________________ Date:___________ Core:______ Volcano Notes Volcanism Interactive 1. How do volcanoes form? 2. What are the four primary types of volcanoes? Name and describe each type in detail. Sketch the shape of each type and note its plate tectonic setting (i.e., over hot spots, spreading centers, or subduction zones). Name: Picture: Name: Picture: Plate Tectonic Setting: Name: Picture: Plate Tectonic Setting: Name: Picture: Plate Tectonic Setting: Plate Tectonic Setting: 3. Where do volcanoes form? 4. Rocks are classified by what they are made of and how they form. Igneous rocks always begin as magma. What are the two main types of igneous rocks, and what is the main difference between them? How does each type form into solid rock? Volcanic Eruptions and Hazards Interactive 5. Will an effusive eruption have more gas and be denser (viscous) than an explosive flow, or will it be less gaseous and less viscous? How does each type of eruption cause damage? 6. Which type of eruption appears to be the more hazardous to humans? Explain your answer. 7. Of the numerous hazards caused by volcanic eruptions, list and describe at least three that cause damage on a local level, and at least one that has global implications. Anatomy of a Volcano and Volcanic Features Interactive 8. How do lava tubes form, and where are they most likely to be found? 9. What is the difference between how two common cave features -- stalactites and stalagmites -- form in limestone caves and how they form in lava tubes? 10. Besides stalactites and stalagmites, choose three lava tube features that interest you, and explain how they form.
