Answer 2

Molten rocks beneath the earth's surface are called magma. (Option b)

• Extremely hot liquid or semi-liquid found under the earth's surface is called magma.
• It is the high pressure and temperature under the earth's crust that retains magma in its molten form.
• Magma occupies most of the earth's mantle.
• They can erupt out through the cracks and holes present in the crust. This phenomenon is called volcanic eruption.
• The magma thus reaching the earth's surface through volcanic eruption is called lava.
• Magma comprises minerals and dissolved gases like sulfur, carbon dioxide, and water vapor.
