Explain different types of volcanic Landforms.
Answers
Answer:
The three types are composite volcanoes, shield volcanoes, or cinder cone volcanoes. The cinder cones are small volcanoes with steep sides.
Volcanic landforms are divided into extrusive and intrusive landforms based on whether magma cools within the crust or above the crust.
Rocks formed by the cooling of magma within the crust are called Plutonic rocks.
Rocks formed by the cooling of lava above the surface are called Igneous rocks.
Magma is the hot molten rock that builds in pressure and explodes from the volcano as lava.
The way a volcano erupts and the materials that make up the magma and lava of a particular volcano have a lot to do with the formation of the volcanic landforms, such as craters, calderas, lava domes and lava plateaus.
