Answer:

The answer would be b

Explanation:

Craters are formed by the outward explosion of rocks and other materials from a volcano. Calderas are formed by the inward collapse of a volcano's magma chamber. Craters are usually much smaller features than calderas, and calderas are sometimes considered giant craters.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

C) Craters are formed by ejecting material during volcanic explosions while calderas are formed from inward collapse of volcano tops during explosive eruptions.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Calderas form when the volcanic eruption or the eruption of lava creates a huge empty magmatic chamber below the surface of the earth which later form a depression due to collapsing back into the chamber.

Calderas are not visible with a naked eye; they can only be seen on images taken from out of space. An example of the gigantic caldera is Yellowstone National Park. Craters, however, results from volcanic eruptions which cause vents were magma and other material escapes to form a cone shape. An example is Mt. St Helen.

6. These lines run between the geographic North and South Pole

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

These lines are called lines of longitudes.

Explanation:

There is a difference between longitudes and lines of longitudes.

Longitude: It is the angular distance from one point location to another point location on the globe.This angular distance is measured with the help of lines of longitudes.
Lines of longitudes: These are imaginary lines that run around the Earth vertically (up and down) and meet at the North and South Poles. These lines are also termed as meridians. The Prime Meridian is located at 0° and the lines of longitude run east and west of Prime Meridian. There are 360 longitudes in total (180 east and 180 west of Prime Meridian). Further, all longitudes are also great circles.
