Transcript
1. What is the difference between magma and lava? It is magma when it is in the Earth and lava when it comes out of the volcano. 2. Why do you think the Earth’s crust is thicker under the mountains than it is under the ocean? Because mountains are heavier. 3. How are earthquakes and volcanoes similar? They both shake the earth and are dangerous forces of nature. 4. Volcano is compared to fireworks. 5. We live on the crust. 6. Volcanoes are sometimes caused by gas getting trapped and not able to get out. 7. If there is less pressure on the inner core it will probably melt. 8. The author compared the plates to a jigsaw puzzle to help you understand what the plates look like. 9. Earthquakes occur where two plates meet.
