What is it called when magma squeezes between layers of rock?
sill. a slab of volcanic rock formed when magma squeezes between layers of rock. batholith. a mass of rock formed when a large body of magma cools inside the crust.
What landform is formed when magma hardens inside the volcano’s pipe and the surrounding rock layer wears away?
Lesson 3
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| magma that forces itself across rock layers and hardens | dike |
| a landform produced when magma hardens in a volcano’s pipe and the surrounding rock later wears away | volcanic neck |
| hardened magma that squeezed between horizontal rock layers | sill |
| the hole left when a volcano collapses | caldera |
When magma hardens in a volcano’s pipe the result will eventually be a landform called a?
Ch. 15 Review Volcanoes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| When magma hardens in a volcano’s pipe, the result will eventually be a landform called a | volcanic neck |
| Magma that forces across rock layer hardens into a | dike |
| In the United States, where do shield volcanoes occur? | Hawaiian Islands |
When groundwater heated by magma rises to the surface and collects in a natural pool it is called a?
When groundwater heated by magma rises to the surface and collects in a natural pool, it is called a hot spring. In volcanic areas, groundwater heated by magma is a source of geothermal energy.
What landform is created when magma squeezes?
Magma that squeezes between horizontal rock layers hardens to form a sill. A dome mountain forms when uplift pushes a large body of hardened magma toward the surface, which eventually becomes exposed. A batholith is a mass of rock formed when a large body of magma cools inside the crust.
What landforms do magma create?
Landforms created by lava include volcanoes, domes, and plateaus. New land can be created by volcanic eruptions. Landforms created by magma include volcanic necks and domes.
What forms when magma hardens in a pipe of a volcano?
A volcanic neck forms when magma hardens in the pipe of a volcano. Softer rock around the pipe wears away, leaving just the neck standing. A volcanic neck looks like a giant tooth stuck in the ground. A dike forms when magma hardens across rock layers.
What is formed when groundwater is heated by nearby magma?
Geysers are formed when groundwater is heated by nearby magma.
What landform is created when magma squeezes between rock layers to form a hardened slab of rock a volcanic neck B Dike C lava plateau D sill?
Magma that squeezes between horizontal rock layers hardens to form a sill. A dome mountain forms when uplift pushes a large body of hardened magma toward the surface, which eventually becomes exposed.
