Answer:
1.) A volcano is an opening on a surface that allows materials warmer than its surroundings to escape from its interior. When these typical materials escape it causes an eruption (lava).
2.) Two main types of volcanos are composite and shield.
3.) The molten hot liquid below the Earth's surface is called magma.
4.) Once this molten hot liquid erupts from the Earth's surface it is called lava.
5.) Types of volcanos that form from thin runny lava are called Shield cones.
6.) The difference between a dormant and an active volcano is that those that erupt regularly are called active, while those that have erupted in historical times but are now quiet are called dormant (or inactive).
7.) A hot spot is a volcanic region that is thought to be fed by underlying mantle that is anomalously hot compared with the surrounding mantle.
8.) Layers of a composite volcano consists of deep-sided, symmetrical cones, volcanic ash, cinders, blocks, and bombs.
