Magmatism is the formation and motion of magma under Earth's surface. A volcanic explosion turns magma into lava when it escapes onto the surface, which is a relatively rare event. Magmatism helps form igneous rocks from molten rock and provides insight into how Earth and other celestial bodies function.

4. A volcanic explosion, in effect, turns magma into lava.

5. Volcanic eruptions and other types of geological
events that allow magma to escape onto Earth's
surface are relatively rare.

6. Magmatism is the formation and motion of magma
under Earth's surface.

7. There are three primary classifications of rock in
geology. They are sedimentary, metamorphic, and
igneous.

8. Magma and lava both create igneous rock, which is molten rock that crystallizes
as it cools down.
Igneous rocks are notable for their smooth, glassy appearance, and they occur in a
variety of colors and shapes.

11. The process of magma is complex. It is typically found
at 700 -1200 Degrees Celcius. The most common
temperature is 1100 Degrees Celcius.

The majority of this heat is PRIMORDIAL HEAT which
means that it is existed since the Earth formation.

Elements such as Uranium and potassium also
generate heat when goes decay.

14. WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF MAGMATISM?

15. WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF MAGMATISM?
The study of magmatism helps scientists
understand how Earth functions. This also
provides insight as to how other celestial bodies
were formed and how they function.

16. WHAT KIND OF PROCESS IS MAGMATISM?

17. WHAT KIND OF PROCESS IS MAGMATISM?
Magmatism is the formation and motion of magma
below Earth's surface. It is responsible for many
interesting processes on Earth, including filling in
tectonic cracks, mountain formation, and helping
heat to escape from Earth's core.

18. •WHAT ARE EXAMPLES OF MAGMATISM?
•The Andes Mountains are an example of
magmatism. These mountains are formed on a
convergent plate boundary, which is defined as a
place where tectonic plates are pushing against
one another. This forces geologic materials both
upwards and downwards, forming mountains and
more magma.

24. • Volcanic eruptions are beautiful,

Unfortunately, these terms are used in
conversation interchangeably.
However, they have very different meanings.
Lava is molten rock above Earth's surface.
Magma is molten or semi-molten rock below
Earth's surface
