What is a chemical property?
B 400
Pahoehoe and aa are
produced during __________
eruptions.
B 500
What are quiet?
B 500
A(n) ________________
happens when an explosive
eruption hurls ash, cinders,

volcano.
C 100
What is a pyroclastic flow?
C 100

D 100
What is a shield volcano?
D 100
A(n) _______________
forms when magma hardens
in a volcano’s pipe and is
later exposed.
D 200
What is a volcanic neck?
D 200
Magma that forces itself
across rock layers hardens to
form this.
D 300
What is a dike?

mountain collapses, a
____________ forms.
D 500
What is a caldera?
D 500
This is the energy derived
from water that has been
heated by magma
underground.
E 100
What is geothermal energy?
E 100
This is why explosive
eruptions cause ash, cinders
and bombs to be produced.

it cools to form these
particles?
(Accept reasonable answers)
E 200
This is how geothermal
energy is used.
