What geological feature is located below an active volcano

Biology
2 answers:
VMariaS [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The geological features that are usually present below an active volcano are as follow-

1) Mantle plume- This is the region containing a huge concentration of magma rising from the mantle-core boundary. This exerts huge pressure towards the surface of the earth thereby lifting the land and subsequently forms a volcano.

2) Magma chamber- These are chambers that are comprised of magma bodies and with the increasing pressure and temperature, they tend to rise up and form volcanoes.

3) D(i)ke- This are vein-like structures within which the magma moves upward with increasing force. They cross-cuts the country rocks.

4) Sills- This is a parallel vein-like structure along which magma flows and they are parallel to the country rocks. They are not that frequently found like d(i)kes.

Answer:

Below an active volcano lies magma chamber. Magma is the liquid which makes the lava. It’s located within the crust of the earth.

Explanation:

Magma chambers lies within the crust of the earth. Volcano is made up of magma which has come in contact with water. Upon contact with water, it erupts.

Once the volcano erupts it can destroy all forms of life surrounding it. The parts where the lava has fallen are no more capable of inhibiting.

gayaneshka [121]

In liquid media or broth difference between dry and wet will give biomass of the Epulopiscium.

Explanation:

Biomass of bacteria can be measured by dry or wet mass. Bacteria numbers can be counted by spread plate method under the microscope.

In solid media the colonies obtained are diluted and number of cells will be seen by plate count method or on automated cell counter. The number would help calculate biomass

The biomass will be calculated by measuring wet and dry mass. Equipments required will be:

hydraulic gravity convection oven and centrifugation set up.

A cellulose acetate filter membrane is used which is 47 mm in diameter and 0.45 micron of pore size.

The cells  grown settles down due to gravity. They are stirred to evenly spread in the broth and is kept in centrifuge.

The cells obtained after centrifugation will be taken and wet weight is obtained.

To obtain dry weight the cells are placed in oven for 6 hours to 24 hours. The resultant cells are weighed and dry weight obtained.

Biomass will be calculated by subtracting the wet mass to dry mass. This way biomass is obtained in epulopisicuium. Here the cells will be of different size so on centrifugation 2 or more phases of cells can be seen due to gravity change.
