Innermost part of the Earth. 3450km. Consists mainly of iron and nickel Very high temperature of 4000 ◦C
Quiz: How will the high temperature affect the crust?
![Page 4: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Middle layer. 2900km thick Mostly solid with the upper most layers
consisting of molten rocks known as magma.
Lava flow on Hawaii. Lava is the extrusive equivalent of magma.
Quiz: What is the difference between magma and lava?

• Outermost layer of the Earth.• 60km thick and floats on denser mantle.• Broken up into pieces known as crustal plates.•

Continental plates are lighter and consist of land masses.
Oceanic plates are heavier as they consist of large water masses.
Quiz: what happens when an oceanic plate collides with a
continental plate?

World's Crustal plates

Quiz: Explain how convection currents affects plate movement.
![Page 10: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Extreme heat from the interior of the Earth causes the magma to be heated up, expand and rises.
This generates convection currents.
Quiz: Name an example of convection current that u can find in
the kitchen
![Page 11: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
As the convention currents reach the crust above, they spread out carrying the plates above with it. Plates are dragged apart.
As the magma cools, it gradually sinks back down to be re-heated. The process causes the plates to move towards each other.

• Describe and explain the 3 types of plate movements
• Identify the landforms that are formed

(1) Convergent plates movement- Crustal plates move towards each other
(2) Divergent plates movement – Crustal plates moving away from each other.
(3) Transform plate movement- plates sliding past each other.

Scenario 1: continental plate + oceanic plate
![Page 16: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Scenario 1: continental plate + oceanic plate
Quiz: Which plate is heavier? What landform is created?
![Page 17: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Convention currents within magma pulls two plates together.
The heavier oceanic plate get subducted while the lighter continental plate floats on it.
Subducted part of the plate melts under high heat to form magma.
Magma then rises above the Earth’s surface to form volcanoes.

When convention currents within magma push two crustal plates together, there is immense collision force.
Rocks between the plates are pushed upwards, folded to form fold mountain.
Eg: Himalayas mountains, Andes and Rocky.

When the convention currents in magma pull 2 oceanic plates apart, a ridge may form at the boundaries.
Magma may rise up the cracks to from volcanoes.

Ridge • A ridge is a
geological feature consisting of a chain of mountains or hills that form a continuous elevated crest for some distance.
• Ridges are usually termed hills or mountains as well, depending on size.

Occurs at conservative plate boundary whereby the plates are not created nor destroyed
Plates slide past each other. Eg; San Francisco fault.

Quiz: What happens after a volcanic eruption?
![Page 35: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Vulcanicity is the process by which the molten materials are forced onto the Earth’s surface.
The molten rock found below the earth is called magma. When magma flows onto the earth, it becomes lava.
Lava flows through the earths surface through a single opening.
Overtime, the layers of lava forms a volcano.
![Page 36: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Structure of a volcano
• A volcano is an opening in the earths crust from which materials are ejected
• During an eruption, molten rock or magma is ejected onto the earths surface as lava.
• Gases such as steam and carbon dioxide may also be released.
![Page 38: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Crater – opening at the top of a volcano where lava, rock fragments, gases and ash are ejected.
Lava – Molten rocks that have been erupted onto the Earth’s surface.
Pipe – Channel joining the magma chamber to the top of the volcano which the magma flows through.
Vent- Opening in the Earth’s crust where magma rises and are ejected out
![Page 39: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Magma chamber – An underground cavity which contains molten rocks.
Cone – This is built up by successive layers of cooled and solidified lava, mixed with ash and rock fragments.

Quiz: Why are the volcanoes in different shapes?
![Page 41: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
(1)Basic lava flow •- more fluid and thin and the lava travels over a longer distance before solidifying.
•- lava flow faster and spread widely•- Gives rise to a more gentle-sloping volcano (shield volcano).
(2) Acidic lava flow• Lava is thicker and more viscous.• Travels over a shorter distance and cools and
solidify faster.• Gives rise to volcano with steeper slopes.

Other examples are Mt Mayon in the Philippines; Mt Merapi in Java.

One of the best examples of a dormant volcano is Mauna Kea, one of the five volcanoes that make up the Big Island of Hawaii.
The peak of Mauna Kea is 4,207 meters above sea level, but 10,203 meters above the base of the floor of the Pacific Ocean.
Geologists classify Mauna Kea in the post-shield stage of volcanic evolution. It stopped being a shield volcano about 200,000 years ago.
Mauna Kea’s last eruption is thought to be 2460 BC.

• (1) Active volcano – A volcano that is currently erupting or is likely to erupt soon. (frequently)
• (2) Dormant volcano – A volcano that is presently inactive but may erupt in the future(occasional)
• (3) Extinct volcano – A volcano that is dead and not expected to erupt again.
(Different stages)

Summary• Label the 7 parts of the
volcano
• Describe the 3 stages/types of volcano: active, dormant, extinct
![Page 47: Fold mts& volcanoes 2013](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020718/549a357db47959ed2e8b4582/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Hot ash, gas and rocks are poisonous and hazardous to air. Disruption to traffic.
High temperature lava flow, volcanic bombs, cinder and ash may kill people, bury farmlands and houses and destroy infrastructure.
Volcanic eruption may trigger landslides that kill livestock and bury houses and people.

Soil near volcanoes are rich and fertile which is suitable for crops to be grown.
Geothermal energy generated by the heat from volcanoes is used to produce electricity for development of industries.
Source of precious stones and minerals like diamonds, copper, zinc, gold and silver etc provide mining jobs.
Volcanic rocks provide materials for landscaping, construction and road-building.

A form of tourism revenue as many religions and cultural rituals are conducted by people living on the slopes of volcanoes.
Beautiful landscapes of volcanoes serve as a form of tourist attraction.
Eg Bali and Java. This provides jobs and revenues to the
locals.
