Earth Science Chapter 9– Song Lyrics
Explosive Pyroclastic
A volcano
is a mountain
formed
beneath the ground when
the
Earth’s crust meets the mantle
and magma
collects there until
it rises
to the surface
because
magma is less dense
than the
surrounding rock is.
Then the
magma becomes liquid.
Shield, cinder cone, and composite
volcanoes
Explosive – pyroclastic
Now everybody knows
Shield, cinder cone, and composite volcanoes
Non-explosive lava flows
Now everybody knows
When the
water content in
the magma
is higher, then
the
volcano is more likely
to erupt
explosively.
Composite, also known as
stratavolcanoes, form as
explosive
eruptions are
followed
by flowing lava.
Shield, cinder cone, and composite volcanoes
Non-explosive lava eruptions
form shield
volcanoes
Shield, cinder cone, and composite volcanoes
Cinder cone from pyroclastic
are steep but quickly erode
