Volcanoes are actually openings on the surface of the earth. How much do you
know about volcanoes? Let’s find more about volcanoes in the following passage.


Lesson 1 Volcanoes
The surface of Earth is not a solid place. There are many holes, some of which allow magma to reach the earth’s surface from deep inside.
Magma comes from deep inside Earth where it’s hot. It’s so hot that rocks melt. Magma is molten, or melted rock. Because of the heat, there is also pressure. When things such as air, gases, or molten rock get hot, they expand, or get bigger. That means they need space. Weak parts of Earth’s crust get pushed aside, or opened up. The magma follows the easiest path, usually along fissures, or cracks, toward the surface.
When it does reach the surface, the magma is called lava. If there is a great deal of pressure behind the magma, it explodes through the crust's surface, sending dust, ash, lava, and rocks high into the air. When there is only a little pressure, the magma may simply bubble up and form a lava flow that spreads across the land.
A volcano may be active, or experience eruptions, on a fairly regular basis. Or it may lie dormant, or inactive, for hundreds of years. Scientists, called volcanologist, are always ready to learn more because each volcano is unique and may teach them something new about the inner workings of Earth.
