◾Summit - Highest point; apex
◾Throat - Entrance of a volcano. The part of the conduit that ejects lava and volcanic ash.
◾Ash - Fragments of lava or rock smaller than 2 mm in size that are blasted into the air by volcanic explosions.
◾Ash Cloud - A cloud of ash formed by volcanic expulsions. (with force sometimes containing pieces of solidified parts of magma )
Explanation:
When pressure builds up inside the core and temperature increases the magma from the magma chamber inside the earth, comes up ( fast or slow depending on intensity ) through the main pipe and out of the crater. Magma when out to air or out of the volcano is called lava.
