5. Magma is the molten rock
beneath the earth surface
Crater is the mouth of a volcano, it surrounds a volcanic vent
Ash Cloud it is a cloud of ash that formed in a

Ash the layer of ash or
fragment of lava or rocks

size that are blasted into the
air by volcanic explosion
Lava is molten or partially
molten rocks (magma) that has
been expelled from the interior of

- Geothermal energy
Tourism
- Fertile soil for farming
- Mining for minerals
DISADVANTAGES
- Lava flows can
destroy buildings
- Ash can choke
people and cover
buildings leading to
collapse
- Impact of transport –
lava can cut across
roads and ash can

As the magma is continuously heated, it goes
up
As magma rises, gas bubbles are developed pressure inside the
volcano increases due to trapped bubbles within it.
