Answer:
Explanation:
When a horizontal pressure is applied to rocks, the earth's surface will form lines that are perpendicular to the direction of the pressure. This can be compared to folds in a wrinkled rug lying on a floor.
Explosive eruptions tend to build up composite volcanoes.
A composite volcano evolved over tens of thousands of years as a result of several eruptions. The composite volcano is built up through eruptions, layer by layer, until it reaches heights of thousands of meters. Lava may have formed some layers, while ash, rock, and pyroclastic flows may have formed others. A composite volcano can also accumulate significant amounts of thick magma, which can clog up inside the volcano and force it to erupt violently.
Composite Volcano are fueled by a conduit system that accesses a magma reserve deep within the Earth. This magma can erupt either from a sizable core crater at the volcano's summit or from a number of vents scattered throughout the flanks of the composite volcano.
